KaVontae Turpin News
Saturday, September 19, 5:27 AM
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver KaVontae Turpin had a quiet game in his team's Week 1 loss to the New York Giants, recording one catch for eight yards on one target. The 30-year-old has had moments of fantasy relevance in a gadget role in recent seasons, recording at least 25 catches and 15 carries in both 2024 and 2025. However, Turpin was on the field for just eight of the Cowboys' snaps on offense against the Giants. In addition to the star wide receiver duo of CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens, Cowboys wideout Ryan Flournoy has established himself as the clear WR3 in Dallas. As a result, Turpin appears likely to make his greatest impact on special teams, at least to begin the year. Barring an injury to at least one of the wide receivers ahead of him on the depth chart, Turpin can remain off of fantasy radars.

DeMario Douglas News
Friday, September 18, 10:24 PM
New England Patriots wide receiver DeMario Douglas will take on a larger role during Week 2 against the Pittsburgh Steelers, and it could result in him jumping to the low-end WR3/flex tier in PPR leagues. Douglas handled a respectable 62% snap share in last week's season opener against the Seahawks, catching five of seven targets for 20 yards. The receiving yards output was quite disappointing, but the overall volume and target share should catch the attention of PPR managers. Heading into Week 2, the Patriots are without A.J. Brown (ankle), leaving Douglas as the de facto No. 2 receiver in New England behind Romeo Doubs. Given Doubs' lack of reliability after he had some drop issues in Week 1, Douglas has a chance to emerge as Drake Maye's most reliable target, even if he doesn't have the highest ceiling. He projects for at least a handful of targets on Sunday, which could put him on the streaming radar as a low-end WR3/flex.
