Saints Restructure Juwan Johnson's Contract

Friday, March 6, 6:36 AM

The New Orleans Saints restructured tight end Juwan Johnson's contract on Friday to free up $6.29 million in salary cap space for the 2026 season, according to Katherine Terrell of ESPN. The Saints converted part of Johnson's base salary into a signing bonus. In the first season with Kellen Moore as the head coach in New Orleans, Johnson had career-highs in catches (77), targets (102), and receiving yards (889) while scoring three times in 17 games in his sixth year in the league. The 29-year-old former undrafted free agent out of Penn State showed nice chemistry with young quarterback Tyler Shough last year, and he should enter 2026 fantasy football drafts this fall as a decent low-end TE1 option with a strong floor if you decide to wait at the position.

RJ Harvey Stuck in a Timeshare in Year 2?

Tuesday, March 10, 5:50 AM

Denver Broncos running back RJ Harvey finished his 2025 rookie campaign as the lead back in the Mile High City, following a Week 10 foot injury that ended J.K. Dobbins' first season with the team. Expected to pursue the position aggressively when the legal tampering window opened on Monday, the Broncos agreed to a new two-year deal with Dobbins, worth up to $20 million with $8 million guaranteed. After handing out one of the larger running back deals of the day, it would appear that Harvey will find himself in a similar position to the one in which he opened his rookie season as the clear 1B in a timeshare with Dobbins. Harvey was able to salvage his fantasy season, with a traditionally unsustainable 12 touchdowns, but he lacked notable explosiveness, and his 128-touch pace through the year's first ten weeks was well below what fantasy managers had hoped for following his lofty second-round NFL Draft capital and rumblings of his usage in Sean Payton's Joker role.
