Ladd McConkey is a Full-Go For Training Camp

Tuesday, July 28, 10:34 AM

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Ladd McConkey told ESPN's Kris Rhim he is a "full-go" for training camp, which begins tomorrow. McConkey was considered questionable for the start of training camp due to a strained hamstring he suffered during offseason workouts in the spring. The 24-year-old is coming off a disappointing sophomore season, but he is a trendy breakout candidate among fantasy analysts due to his talent being utilized by new offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel. McConkey also went on to say, "I feel like this is probably the most talented roster I've been on since I've been here. Now we just gotta go do it." With McConkey at full health, the Chargers are looking to finally deliver on sky-high expeactions within the organization in 2026.

Cam Skattebo the Giants' Clear Lead Back

Monday, August 3, 5:27 AM

New York Giants running back Cam Skattebo has been the first player up in almost every running back drill through the early stages of training camp, and NFL Insider Connor Hughes calls him the team's clear lead back. After starting his rookie season in a timeshare, Skattebo's run as the primary ball carrier lasted only a handful of games before a lower leg injury ended his 2025 campaign, but he has handled the majority of work through the opening practices of summer and should see heavy volume in his second season. Skattebo is RotoBaller's RB20 but could see his ADP rise throughout draft season as he distances himself from the gruesome season-ending injury, and he is a legitimate threat to finish as an RB1 in 2026.
