Keenan Allen News
Sunday, August 30, 5:12 AM
Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Keenan Allen was arrested early Sunday morning with preliminary misdemeanor charges of driving while intoxicated and DWI endangering a person, according to WTHR in Indianapolis. Allen has yet to be formally charged, but a police report and online jail records indicate the incident occurred in downtown Indianapolis around 1 a.m., though it was not reported until closer to 3 a.m. The 34-year-old Allen, who ranks 10th all-time among wide receivers in career receptions, recently signed a one-year deal with the Colts and is expected to see a significant role in his reunion with Shane Steichen, but fantasy managers will now need to think twice about where they are willing to select him in 2026 drafts, as the NFL does not need to wait for the legal process to play out before levying any suspension against him.

Xavier Worthy News
Thursday, August 27, 12:19 PM
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy (shoulder) is coming off an underwhelming 2025 campaign in which he recorded 42 catches for 532 yards and a touchdown on 73 targets across 14 games. Worthy suffered a shoulder injury in Week 1 that he played through for much of the season, which may have been one of the reasons why his production was subpar. Unfortunately for Worthy, he suffered another shoulder injury early in training camp that has limited him throughout the summer. While the current shoulder issue is not expected to cause Worthy to miss regular-season time, it's still a bit of a red flag. Worthy may also see a somewhat diminished role in the Chiefs' offense in 2026 if the team can get more out of top wide receiver Rashee Rice, who missed nine games in 2025. Worthy still carries some upside due to his elite speed as he enters his third NFL season, but he should be viewed as a mid-tier WR4/flex option entering 2026.
