Jon Machota of The Athletic believes KaVontae Turpin could score "at least" eight touchdowns in 2025. He was used "in a variety of ways" during training camp, including "as a running back" and a "big-play option down the field in the passing game." As a result, Machota feels the wideout "is in position to have his most impactful season to date." Turpin is coming off his most productive year in the National Football League. He appeared in all 17 regular-season contests, amassing 31 catches for 420 yards and two touchdowns. The Cowboys have CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens as the primary receiving options. However, if one of them goes down with an injury, the door may be open for Turpin to see an increase in scoring chances. While that may not be beneficial for fantasy managers to begin the 2025 campaign, he's worth stashing in deeper formats.

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Roman Wilson finished with two receptions for 72 yards on four targets in a 17-14 preseason loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The second-year pro did all of his damage in the contest's opening quarter. He ran past multiple defenders to secure a 42-yard deep ball from Mason Rudolph and later found space on a crossing route to gain 30 yards on a pass from Skylar Thompson. After a rookie season plagued by injuries, Wilson has shown promise heading into the 2025-2026 campaign. With teammate Calvin Austin III (abdomen) currently injured, Wilson has a clear path to earning the WR2 role behind D.K. Metcalf. The 24-year-old will look to build on this strong performance in Pittsburgh's final exhibition game against the Carolina Panthers.
