JuJu Smith-Schuster Works Out for the Jets on Tuesday

Tuesday, September 15, 7:22 PM

The New York Jets hosted veteran free agent wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster for a workout on Tuesday, according to Aaron Wilson of KPRC2. The 29-year-old is looking for another chance in the NFL after the Giants released him while he was recovering from a knee injury during training camp. He hasn't achieved fantasy relevance since 2022 with the Chiefs, but the Jets are interested in bringing him aboard. After all, they have an opening at the wide receiver position with Omar Cooper Jr. (ankle) diagnosed as week-to-week. The Jets worked out a few receivers, so it's not a lock that Smith-Schuster even gets offered a contract. However, at the very least, there's mutual interest from both sides. Any signing would keep Smith-Schuster off the fantasy radar in most leagues.

DK Metcalf News

DK Metcalf Breaks Out for 115 Yards

Friday, October 2, 6:15 AM

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf finally delivered the big yardage game that had been missing through the first three weeks. Metcalf caught five of nine targets for a game-high 115 yards in Thursday night's 27-24 loss to Cleveland, surpassing the 98 receiving yards he had totaled over the first three games combined. Most of the damage came after halftime. He hauled in a 43-yard pass early in the fourth quarter to help jump-start Pittsburgh's comeback, then came up with catches of 22 and 28 yards on the late drive that eventually tied the game. Metcalf did not score, but the nine targets were a welcome jump after he saw only five against Cincinnati in Week 3. He now has 16 catches for 213 yards and one touchdown through four games. The production had been quiet to start the year, but Thursday was easily his most productive performance of the season.
