Cardinals Signing Kendrick Bourne to Two-Year Deal

Monday, March 9, 3:09 PM

The Arizona Cardinals are signing former San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Kendrick Bourne to a two-year deal worth up to $12 million on Monday, sources told Jordan Schultz of FOX Sports. Bourne will bring plenty of experience to the Cardinals, his third NFL team. The 30-year-old veteran has 4,265 career receiving yards in his nine NFL campaigns. He spent the 2025 season with the Niners, catching 37 of 53 targets for 551 yards and no touchdowns in 16 regular-season games (eight starts). Bourne had back-to-back 142-yard games in Weeks 5 and 6 in 2025 to highlight his return to the Bay Area. A move to the desert and the rebuilding Cardinals won't be ideal, though. Expect Bourne to be competing for the WR3 role in Arizona behind Marvin Harrison Jr. and Michael Wilson, who should command the vast majority of aerial targets from veteran quarterback Jacoby Brissett. In 12-team leagues, Bourne should be left to the waiver wire to open the 2026 season.

Isaac TeSlaa Unlikely to Repeat Touchdown Efficiency

Monday, April 6, 5:39 AM

As a rookie in 2025, Detroit Lions wide receiver Isaac TeSlaa caught six touchdowns on only 26 targets and 16 receptions, a touchdown rate almost ten times higher than the league average, and nearly double that of Davante Adams, who led the NFL with 14 touchdown grabs. While few are calling for a repeat of such outlandish efficiency in year two, some have labeled him as a potential breakout candidate on the hopes that increased volume could make him a less touchdown-reliant fantasy asset. However, TeSlaa has never been a target-earner. His 14% target share across two seasons at Arkansas ranked well behind several of his own teammates, and even with the Lions, he was regularly on the field for more than just gadget plays designed to find him in the end zone. His 296 routes run last season put him in the top 10 in his rookie class, while his 0.81 yards per route run trailed only Arian Smith, Konata Mumpfield, Dont'e Thornton Jr., and Gage Larvadain among rookies with at least 100 routes run. Amon-Ra St. Brown, Jameson Williams, Jahmyr Gibbs, and Sam LaPorta all figure to slot in ahead of TeSlaa in the target pecking order, and unless he can bank on a second outlier season, he will likely be little more than an occasional injury replacement in 2026.
