Marquise Brown News
Wednesday, February 25, 9:01 AM
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Marquise Brown opened the 2025 season with a bang, hauling in 10 catches for 99 yards on 16 targets in Week 1 against the Los Angeles Chargers. However, the 28-year-old was not able to maintain his hot start and saw his role in the Chiefs' offense gradually fade over the course of the season. Across 16 games overall, Brown recorded 49 receptions for 587 yards and five touchdowns on 74 targets. Heading into his age-29 season, Brown is now set to hit unrestricted free agency. Chiefs WR1 Rashee Rice is currently being sued by the mother of his children for alleged physical abuse and is being investigated by the NFL for violations of the league's personal conduct policy. As a result, there could be an opening for playing time in Kansas City if the team chooses to bring Brown back on a new contract. Still, Brown's production has been on a gradual decline since his banner 2021 season, when he recorded 1,008 yards and six touchdown catches as a member of the Baltimore Ravens. His fantasy outlook is likely trending in the wrong direction heading into 2026, regardless of where he signs in free agency.

Kyren Williams News
Monday, March 16, 11:00 AM
Los Angeles Rams running back Kyren Williams posted another excellent season in 2025, recording 1,252 rushing yards and 10 rushing touchdowns on 259 carries across 17 games. The 25-year-old also posted his most productive NFL campaign as a receiver, hauling in 36 receptions for 281 yards and three scores on 50 targets. However, despite playing one more game, Williams saw 55 fewer touches in 2025 than he did in 2024, and he could be in line for an even steeper drop in workload in 2026. Fellow Rams running back Blake Corum emerged as a productive piece of the team's offense in 2025, averaging over five yards per carry on his way to 782 scrimmage yards and six total touchdowns. If Los Angeles fields one of the league's elite offenses once again in 2026, the team may be able to support quality fantasy production from two running backs. However, if the Rams' offense regresses or the team chooses to even out the touch distribution between its two backs even further, Williams might have a tough time maintaining fantasy RB1 production. To no fault of his own, Williams' dynasty value should be slightly downgraded after Corum's emergence in 2025.
