Kendrick Bourne News
Friday, July 10, 10:23 AM
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Kendrick Bourne is looking to remain relevant on his new team. Bourne signed a two-year, $12 million deal with the Cardinals during the offseason. He's currently projected as the third wideout behind Marvin Harrison Jr. and Michael Wilson. Last season, Bourne recorded 37 receptions, 551 receiving yards, and zero touchdowns across 16 games (eight starts) with the San Francisco 49ers. He's a decent depth option, but is likely to get lost in the shuffle in Arizona. Bourne will be the fourth passing option with Harrison, Wilson, and tight end Trey McBride ahead of him in the pecking order. The Cardinals are also loaded at running back, so they could opt to be more run-heavy next season. Unless an injury or two happens, Bourne is unlikely to have weekly fantasy value. He belongs on the waiver wire in most 12-team formats to begin the season.

Chris Brazzell II News
Saturday, July 18, 11:24 AM
Carolina Panthers rookie wide receiver Chris Brazzell II was one of the most productive pass-catchers in the country in his final collegiate season at the University of Tennessee, hauling in 62 catches for 1,017 yards and nine touchdowns across 12 games. Carolina selected Brazzell II in the third round of the 2026 NFL Draft, and he could have a chance to see significant playing time right away. Heading into 2026, Tetairoa McMillan and Jalen Coker are firmly established as the top two wide receivers on the Panthers' depth chart. Going into training camp, Brazzell II will likely be behind 2024 first-rounder Xavier Legette on the team's wide receiver depth chart as well. However, Legette has provided underwhelming production to this point in his career, failing to record either 50 catches or 500 receiving yards in either of his first two NFL seasons. With a strong showing this summer, Brazzell II could leapfrog Legette. As the WR94 by current redraft ADP, Brazzell II could be worth taking a shot on late in drafts.
