Marquez Valdes-Scantling Signing With Seahawks

Wednesday, March 12, 1:12 PM

Free-agent wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling is signing with the Seattle Seahawks on a one-year deal worth up to $5.5 million, according to NFL insider Tom Pelissero. The 30-year-old is set to join his fourth team in three years after posting 17 receptions on 35 targets for 385 yards and four touchdowns in eight games with the New Orleans Saints to close out the 2024 campaign. MVS was originally a fifth-round pick in the 2018 NFL Draft out of USF and has totaled 205 catches for 3,566 yards, and 20 touchdowns in 106 career games. While the veteran is unlikely to be a consistent fantasy producer, he could have spike weeks in Seattle's new-look offense led by Sam Darnold. With DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett out of town, Valdes-Scantling could have the opportunity to start in three-wide sets from Day 1 of the 2025 NFL season.

Rondale Moore Fully Healthy Heading into 2025

Thursday, July 24, 2:49 PM

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Rondale Moore (knee) "looks good" and feels "great" coming out of the team's first training camp practice on Wednesday, according to Mark Craig of The Minnesota Star Tribune. Moore missed all of 2024 after suffering a season-ending knee injury during a joint practice last August while playing for the Atlanta Falcons. The 25-year-old played in 17 games for the Arizona Cardinals in 2023, recording 530 yards from scrimmage and two touchdowns on 40 receptions and 28 rush attempts. Moore could be in line for a similar gadget role in Minnesota and also could be called upon to return punts. He's behind Justin Jefferson, Jordan Addison, and Jalen Nailor on the Vikings depth chart at receiver. However, with Addison likely facing a suspension due to an offseason arrest, Moore could get a chance early in the season.
