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.

Garrett Wilson News
Saturday, August 29, 11:29 AM
New York Jets wideout Garrett Wilson is entering the 2026 season with a clean bill of health after missing the majority of last season with a knee injury. The 26-year-old was the WR7 overall and averaged 16.6 PPR points per game before being shut down for the season. Heading into this season, it isn't a far stretch to say Wilson will be playing with the best quarterback of his career in Geno Smith. Wilson has played with eight different shaky quarterbacks but still has found ways to produce elite statistical numbers. Wilson is only the fifth player in NFL history to record at least 80 receptions and 1,000 receiving yards in each of his first three seasons. In addition, he is the first Jet in franchise history to start a career with three consecutive 1,000-yard seasons. Wilson is currently being drafted as a value as the WR21 on Yahoo. It is within his range of outcomes to finish as a top 10 receiver in fantasy football this season.
