Mack Hollins News
Tuesday, August 11, 7:32 PM
After the acquisitions of wide receivers A.J. Brown and Romeo Doubs, New England Patriots wideout Mack Hollins is not expected to have a major role in 2026. Hollins was the unsung hero for the Patriots, helping them reach the Super Bowl for the first time since 2018. He tallied 550 receiving yards and two touchdowns on 46 receptions, finishing as the WR58 in 2025. Hollins scored 89% of his fantasy points out wide last season, which is likely where Brown (86%), Doubs (83%), and Kayshon Boutte (92%) will operate this season. Although he's generally a non-factor in most fantasy leagues this season, Hollins might also struggle to contribute in deeper leagues.

Isaiah Williams News
Sunday, August 16, 7:38 AM
The Athletic's Zack Rosenblatt writes that New York Jets wide receiver Isaiah Williams "appears to have overtaken" rookie first-rounder Omar Cooper Jr. as the team's starting slot receiver. Williams has had a "stellar camp." Cooper's after-the-catch abilities are better suited for a game atmosphere than practice, which has allowed Williams to surpass him this summer. Rosenblatt adds that the Jets would like their first-round pick to make an impact, so Cooper will most likely continue to get chances to make noise behind Garrett Wilson and Adonai Mitchell in 2026. A former undrafted WR out of Illinois, Williams had 26 catches on 36 targets for 193 yards and zero touchdowns in 15 games (two starts) with New York last year. Williams will also play a role as a return man on special teams, but he could be doing enough in camp to steal valuable targets away from Cooper as the WR3 for the Jets. The 25-year-old's versatility is the best thing going for him. Despite his strong camp to this point, Williams is merely a name to monitor in most fantasy football leagues in 2026.
