KaVontae Turpin Could Remain Buried on Cowboys Wide Receiver Depth Chart

Wednesday, February 25, 8:22 AM

Across 15 games in 2025, Dallas Cowboys wide receiver KaVontae Turpin hauled in 26 receptions for 396 yards and two touchdowns on 38 targets. After logging a career-high 52 targets in 2024, Turpin fell back into a gadget role in the Cowboys' offense in 2025 behind wideouts CeeDee Lamb, George Pickens, and Ryan Flournoy. Turpin brings some fantasy upside with his rushing ability, as he's racked up 308 yards and a touchdown on 47 career carries. However, he's yet to hit 20 rush attempts in a season, so his ability to bolster his production for fantasy managers is limited. The Cowboys could be headed for a contractual standoff with Pickens this offseason, which could throw their wide receiver room into flux to some degree. Still, assuming Pickens is eventually brought back, Turpin will likely remain buried on the team's depth chart in 2026.

Jaylin Lane News

Jaylin Lane Has Value in Deep Leagues Going into his Sophomore Season

Wednesday, February 25, 10:36 AM

Washington Commanders wide receiver Jaylin Lane ended his rookie season on Injured Reserve due to an ankle injury, but flashed promise at times during the 2025 season. The young receiver out of Virginia Tech played behind veteran wide receivers Terry McLaurin and Deebo Samuel Sr. for the majority of his debut season, tallying just 225 yards on 16 catches. However, Deebo is set to hit free agency in March, which opens the door for Lane to compete for the team's second option at wide receiver. Lane was primarily an intermediate-to-deep threat who averaged 14.7 air yards per target over his 15 games played, and is an intriguing option for deep-league fantasy managers looking for volatility in the late rounds. For dynasty managers, Lane remains a good stash player with upside on a promising offense.
