Michael Gallup News
Monday, August 25, 6:18 PM
The Washington Commanders released wide receiver Michael Gallup on Monday, according to Ari Meirov of The 33rd Team. Gallup was unable to make Washington's 53-man roster heading into the regular season in his comeback bid after retiring in 2024 shortly after signing with the Las Vegas Raiders. The 29-year-old veteran could return to the Commanders on their practice squad, but if he signs with another team for the regular season, he will merely be competing for a spot on the active game-day roster and won't be on the fantasy radar at all. The former third-rounder (81st overall) by the Dallas Cowboys in 2018 out of Colorado State caught 34 of 57 targets for 418 yards and only two touchdowns in 17 games (13 starts) in 2023 in his final year in Dallas. Gallup's best season came in Year 2, when he put up a 66-1,107-6 line on 113 targets in 14 games (12 starts).

Darnell Mooney News
Monday, April 27, 9:39 AM
New York Giants wide receiver Darnell Mooney battled through a disastrous season with the Atlanta Falcons in 2025, recording just 32 receptions for 443 yards and a touchdown on 72 targets across 15 games. The 28-year-old was released by Atlanta at the end of the year and will now try to resurrect his NFL career on a one-year, $3 million deal with the Giants. Provided he makes it back to full strength from the knee injury that ended his 2025 season, wide receiver Malik Nabers (knee) should dominate targets in New York. Behind Nabers, Mooney figures to be fighting with veteran wideouts Darius Slayton and Calvin Austin III for the Giants' WR2 role. New York also added Notre Dame wide receiver Malachi Fields with a third-round pick in the 2026 Draft, further muddying the team's depth chart at the position. Mooney remains in a decent position for a bounce-back season. However, there are also enough quality options around him in New York that he's not a lock for any playing time at all if he struggles to produce.
