KaVontae Turpin News
Thursday, August 20, 7:12 PM
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver and returner KaVontae Turpin could see a reduced role in 2026. In 2025, Turpin caught 26 of 38 targets for 396 yards and two touchdowns in 15 games, averaging 4.8 half-PPR fantasy points per game. With a career-high 36% snap share, Turpin is likely to see that number decrease in 2026. With CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens as the two top receivers, third-year receiver Ryan Flournoy has had a strong camp and should see an increased workload in 2026. Flournoy had 475 receiving yards and four touchdowns in 16 games while playing 44% of the snaps. If his role improves, Turpin could be phased out as an outside receiver and used more as a gadget weapon and returner. Currently ranked as the WR108 in RotoBaller's positional rankings, Turpin is well outside fantasy relevance for the 2026 season.

Jahdae Walker News
Sunday, September 14, 11:44 AM
Chicago Bears wide receiver Jahdae Walker (ankle) is officially inactive for Sunday's Week 2 contest against the Detroit Lions. He had been listed as doubtful after missing practice on Friday. The 23-year-old did suit up in last week's season opener, but he only played on special teams. Chicago should have no trouble replacing him on special teams this week, and his absence has no impact on the Bears' offense or fantasy managers' lineups.
