Kameron Johnson News
Saturday, November 22, 12:44 AM
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Kameron Johnson has failed to capitalize on new opportunities with his teammates injured. The second-year receiver has just four catches in 2025, and all four of them came in one game. Outside of that anomalous contest, he has two targets and zero receptions. Johnson played just nine percent of the snaps last Sunday against Buffalo, primarily contributing on special teams. He has 16 kick returns for 394 yards this season, plus 17 punt returns for an additional 219 yards. It has been a bit surprising to see Johnson remain in a depth role despite injuries to his teammates. Chris Godwin (leg), Mike Evans (collarbone), and Jalen McMillan (neck) have all missed significant time, but it hasn't created much of an increase in opportunities for Johnson. Godwin could return this week against the Los Angeles Rams, which would figure to knock down Johnson's involvement even further. He can be dropped in most fantasy leagues.

Omar Cooper Jr. News
Sunday, November 1, 6:14 AM
New York Jets wide receiver Omar Cooper Jr. has a reasonable case for fantasy lineups Sunday against the Las Vegas Raiders after back-to-back 100-yard games. He turned seven targets into six catches for 103 yards and a touchdown against New England, then caught all five of his targets for 115 yards and another score against Miami. The Raiders have allowed the fifth-most fantasy points to slot receivers, giving Cooper an encouraging matchup. His recent numbers are impressive, although two catches accounted for 112 of his 115 yards in Week 7, leaving room for a quieter performance if the explosive plays aren't there. Cooper's snap share also fell from 82% in Week 6 to 64% in Week 7, partly because the Jets used more single-receiver formations rather than because he lost his role. He sits at WR25 in RotoBaller's Week 8 rankings and is a defensible WR3/flex start, particularly for managers willing to accept some volatility.
