Keenan Allen News
Sunday, April 19, 11:25 AM
Los Angeles Chargers general manager Joe Hortiz isn't ruling out a reunion with free-agent veteran wide receiver Keenan Allen, according to Daniel Popper of The Athletic. "I wouldn't say the room is complete," Hortiz said. The most interesting available receiver in free agency that the Chargers could consider is Tyreek Hill (knee), who has previous experience in new offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel's scheme. In addition to Allen and Hill, Jauan Jennings and Deebo Samuel Sr. are available and could be added to a WR room in L.A. that includes Ladd McConkey, Quentin Johnston, and Tre' Harris. McConkey saw his fantasy stock fall considerably in 2025 in his sophomore season with the return of Allen, who finished with 81 receptions for 777 yards and four touchdowns in 17 regular-season games in his 13th year in the league after a one-year stay with the Chicago Bears in 2024. Re-signing with the Bolts would probably be the best-case scenario for Allen's 2026 fantasy value as he nears the end of his illustrious career.

Rashod Bateman News
Monday, May 4, 8:07 AM
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman has been consistently underwhelming throughout his NFL career, and he can be dropped in many dynasty fantasy football leagues. Although he's a former first-round pick, Bateman has never finished higher than WR40 in PPR leagues. He has finished lower than WR65 in four of his five pro seasons. Most recently, in 2025, Bateman was held to just 19 catches, 224 yards, and two touchdowns. While the Ravens do want to throw the ball more, Lamar Jackson is expected to target plenty of other receivers, such as Zay Flowers, Mark Andrews, and even rookie Ja'Kobi Lane. Due to his lack of productivity over the years, Bateman has fallen down the pecking order and seems to have lost the trust of his quarterback. Furthermore, he could be fighting for a roster spot since the Ravens have a new head coach (Jesse Minter) and offensive coordinator (Declan Doyle). He can be dropped in most dynasty leagues.
