Konata Mumpfield News
Friday, January 2, 11:15 AM
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Konata Mumpfield stepped up admirably in Week 16's loss to the Seahawks, while teammate Davante Adams (hamstring) sat with an injury, leaving fantasy managers to believe he was next in line with the veteran shelved. However, he slid back down the pecking order in the following game, signaling instability in a loaded Rams' offense. Mumpfield saw a robust eight targets two weeks back, but that slipped down to five in their loss to the Falcons on Monday night, as he took a back seat to teammate Xavier Smith (chest) (4/67) and tight end Colby Parkinson (6/53). Moreover, Puka Nacua still handled a hefty 10 targets. With Adams out, another asset in LA's passing game is sure to step up. That said, Mumpfield can't be relied upon for consistent fantasy production, considering quarterback Matthew Stafford's propensity to spread the ball around when Adams isn't active.

Cyrus Allen News
Saturday, August 1, 11:48 AM
Kansas City Chiefs rookie wide receiver Cyrus Allen (shin, leg) was carted off during Saturday's practice with an apparent leg injury. Tests on the Chiefs rookie revealed a shin bruise; nothing was torn or broken, per Adam Schefter of ESPN. This was the best-case scenario for Allen, as he appeared to avoid a serious injury. The Chiefs have been dealing with injuries at wide receiver as Xavier Worthy also exited Saturday's practice with a shoulder injury. At the same time, Rashee Rice is still not 100% from knee surgery in May. The 23-year-old has had an outstanding training camp as he continues to build a rapport with quarterback Patrick Mahomes. Kansas City selected Allen with the 176th pick in the 2026 NFL Draft after he caught 51 passes for 674 yards and 13 touchdowns across 13 games in his senior year at Cincinnati. Allen is considered day-to-day for now and will likely receive a few days off from training camp to let his shin heal.
