Michael Thomas News
Wednesday, September 11, 8:40 PM
The National Football League on Wednesday announced that it has lifted the suspension of free-agent wide receiver Michael Thomas. Thomas was suspended for the first game of the 2024 NFL season for an incident with a construction worker near his home last year. The fact that the 31-year-old remained without a team all offseason is a sign that he may struggle to latch on with an organization despite the fact that he's past his one-game suspension. Just several years ago, Thomas was the best receiver in the league, but injuries have limited him to 20 games since the start of the 2020 campaign, and he played in just 10 games with the New Orleans Saints last year before a knee injury ended his season. He caught 39 passes for 448 yards and one touchdown in 2023. Thomas belongs on the waiver wire in all leagues and is unlikely to be on the fantasy radar in 2024.

CeeDee Lamb News
Tuesday, June 9, 8:59 AM
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb saw a decline in his production in 2025, missing three games with an ankle injury and finishing the year with 75 catches for 1,077 yards and three touchdowns on 117 targets. After averaging 10.1 targets per game in 2024, Lamb saw 8.4 targets per game in his first season playing alongside Cowboys wideout George Pickens in 2025. While Pickens' presence could limit Lamb's target upside again in 2026, improved health from Lamb could be the difference in him bouncing back this upcoming season. Additionally, Pickens' long-term future in Dallas is an open question, given that he is currently signed to the franchise tag and is agitating for a contract extension. Lamb is still valued as a WR1 in the majority of dynasty formats, but his stock has fallen a bit after his underwhelming 2025 campaign. As he enters his age-27 season, Lamb should have every opportunity to re-establish himself as one of the elite wide receivers in fantasy football. Fantasy managers should explore buy-low scenarios for Lamb to see if they can acquire him for a relative bargain ahead of 2026.
