Michael Pittman Jr. News
Wednesday, September 30, 5:37 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. managed just two catches for 16 yards on five targets in Week 3 after missing Week 2 with a foot injury. Pittman and quarterback Aaron Rodgers were clearly not on the same page in last week's win, but the 29-year-old could turn things around against the Cleveland Browns on Thursday Night Football. The Browns have given up five touchdowns and the sixth-most fantasy points to opposing receivers through the first three weeks. Although Pittman was out-produced by fellow wideouts DK Metcalf, Roman Wilson, and Ben Skowronek in his return, it was encouraging to see him play 73% of Pittsburgh's offensive snaps, trailing only Metcalf. An uptick in utilization will be worth monitoring in a favorable Week 4 matchup, but fantasy managers shouldn't consider putting Pittman in starting lineups just yet.

Jameson Williams News
Friday, October 2, 5:29 PM
Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams has not quite gotten going in the early part of the 2026 season, recording 10 catches for 127 yards and zero touchdowns on 17 targets across three games. The 25-year-old has taken a back seat in his team's passing game so far, ranking fourth on the Lions in targets behind wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown, running back Jahmyr Gibbs, and tight end Sam LaPorta. As long as all of Detroit's main pass-catchers stay healthy, Williams may have trouble providing fantasy managers with consistent production. Still, Williams' big-play ability makes him a threat to go off in any given week. Week 4 might be a decent time for fantasy managers to bet on Williams, as he will take on the Carolina Panthers. Carolina has allowed the fifth-fewest yards per pass attempt (6.1) in the NFL through three weeks, but they also placed starting cornerbacks Jaycee Horn (quad) and Mike Jackson (groin) on Injured Reserve on Wednesday. In a relatively favorable matchup on paper, Williams profiles as a high-end WR3/flex option for fantasy managers in Week 4.
