Kalif Raymond Heading to Bears on One-Year Deal

Tuesday, March 10, 9:09 AM

Free-agent wide receiver Kalif Raymond is signing an undisclosed one-year deal with the Chicago Bears on Tuesday, a source told Jeremy Fowler of ESPN. The former Detroit Lions wideout will remain in the NFC North and will give the Bears some depth after they lost Olamide Zaccheaus to free agency on Monday. The 31-year-old former undrafted free agent out of Holy Cross started his NFL career back in 2016 with the Denver Broncos. He has been with Detroit since the 2021 campaign, catching 171 passes for 2,185 yards and eight touchdowns on 231 targets in his five years with the Lions. Raymond has mostly been an asset on special teams as a kick and punt returner. He didn't go over 300 yards receiving in each of the last two years in Motown and won't be expected to have a major role on offense in Chicago, making him avoidable in the majority of fantasy leagues.

Jordan Whittington News

Jordan Whittington a Dynasty Drop Candidate

Saturday, June 20, 5:37 AM

Los Angeles Rams second-year wideout Jordan Whittington saw the third-most snaps of all wide receivers on the team in 2025, but that translated to only 171 yards on 18 receptions. Even with Puka Nacua and Davante Adams missing a combined four games, the third receiver spot in Los Angeles carries very little value in an offense that had three tight ends on the field for almost a third of their snaps. The Rams spent a 2026 pick on tight end Max Clare while bypassing the wide receiver position until the sixth round, suggesting a continuation of their heavy personnel usage, and little chance of fantasy relevance for Whittington outside of a catastrophic injury to either Nacua or Adams. At RotoBaller's dynasty WR142, the 2024 sixth-round pick is a deceptively difficult player to move on from given his proximity to the top of the depth chart in what again should be one of the league's highest scoring offenses, but accounting for his usage, both past and projected, Whittington is little more than a roster-clogger whose bench spot could likely be better utilized in all but the deepest of dynasty leagues.
