Kalif Raymond News
Saturday, October 3, 6:29 AM
Chicago Bears wide receiver Kalif Raymond looks to continue his recent string of success ahead of Sunday's matchup with the visiting New York Jets. Raymond has been a nice surprise for Chicago in 2026. Through three games, the 32-year-old leads the team with 19 receptions and 214 receiving yards, all while finishing two targets shy of teammate Luther Burden III's 23. Whether Raymond will be productive all season remains to be seen, but his knowledge of head coach Ben Johnson's offense has made him a reliable outlet on a play-by-play basis. Additionally, the veteran appears to be the preferred option over Burden in two-wide-receiver personnel. Another potential switch at quarterback could make the floor of this offense volatile until the return of Caleb Williams (hamstring). Still, Raymond has been a go-to guy regardless of who is calling signals. He rises a bit this week, clocking in at RotoBaller's PPR WR46.

Malachi Fields News
Saturday, October 3, 6:42 AM
New York Giants rookie wide receiver Malachi Fields has hauled in six of 12 targets for 74 yards in three games to start the 2026 season. Despite a crowded training camp, Fields has stepped up as the WR2 in this offense, playing 74% of snaps and running 68% of routes. However, the Giants' offense under offensive coordinator Matt Nagy ranks 28th in pass attempts and 30th in pass rate over expected. With star receiver Malik Nabers and tight end Isaiah Likely dominating the volume in this passing attack, little is left for the rookie receiver. Fields faces an Arizona Cardinals secondary that has allowed the second-most fantasy points to wide receivers this season. The snaps and matchup are there, but Fields' Week 4 fantasy value will hinge on the Giants' willingness to throw to him against a struggling Cardinals secondary.
