JuJu Smith-Schuster's Role Diminishing as Teammates Excel

Saturday, November 8, 10:29 AM

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster has fallen off the fantasy radar after three lower-volume outings. The veteran receiver saw his snap share fall from 63 percent to 36 percent when Rashee Rice returned from suspension in Week 7, and he's been held to fewer than one-third of the snaps ever since then. During that three-week span, he had six total catches, bottoming out last week with just one target, one catch, and two receiving yards. The 28-year-old now finds himself behind Rice, Travis Kelce, Xavier Worthy, and Marquise Brown in the pecking order. As long as those pass catchers stay healthy, Smith-Schuster will remain off the fantasy radar on the other side of the Chiefs' Week 10 bye.

David Njoku Says he Won't be Back in Cleveland

Monday, February 9, 3:09 PM

Cleveland Browns impending free-agent tight end David Njoku said on his Instagram account on Monday that "the time for me to find a new home has come," according to Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN. Njoku is set to become a free agent on March 12, one day after the new league year begins. The 29-year-old has spent his entire nine-year career in Cleveland and made it known that he'd love to return to the Browns, but it's not in the cards. The former 29th overall pick by the Browns in 2017 out of Miami took a clear back seat to rookie Harold Fannin Jr. in 2025 and is now expendable. Njoku wasn't a reliable fantasy tight end with the reduced role last season, as he caught 33 passes on 48 targets for 293 yards and four touchdowns in 12 games played. It was one of the worst years of Njoku's career, but a bounce-back could be possibly, depending on where he lands in free agency.
