Mike Evans News
Thursday, March 12, 12:23 PM
New San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Mike Evans is expected to "step in right away as the X receiver" and provide leadership for a wideout group that doesn't have much experience, according to Nick Wagoner of ESPN. Evan's "red-zone and tight-window acumen" should translate quickly into head coach Kyle Shanahan's offense in 2026. The 32-year-old future Hall of Famer had 11 straight 1,000-yard seasons with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers before breaking that streak last year when he played in only eight games due to collarbone and hamstring injuries. Evans has scored double-digit touchdowns in six of his 12 seasons in the league, and his 27 TDs on tight-window throws over the last 10 seasons are six more than the next closest player, according to Next Gen Stats. While Evans is nearing the end of his career, his landing spot in the Bay Area could be the best chance he has for a 12th 1,000-yard season. The Niners swooped on Evans earlier this week and signed him to a three-year, $42.4 million contract that could reach $60.4 million through incentives.

CeeDee Lamb News
Wednesday, March 25, 5:25 AM
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb finished the 2025 season with 1,077 yards and three touchdowns on 75 receptions. It was his fifth straight year finishing above 1,000 yards, and with the team returning the same offensive core in 2026, he is confident in where things are headed under head coach Brian Schottenheimer. The Cowboys finished second in the NFL in passing and overall offense, and Lamb recently praised his first-year coach for his receiver-friendliness and command of the team. While missing three games, he finished behind teammate George Pickens in most major statistical categories, and the Cowboys have made moves to improve their basement-dwelling defense from 2025, which could lead to more run-heavy game scripts, but Lamb remains one of the safest options in fantasy football. His connection with Dak Prescott is real, and more big things should be in store for what has become one of the most consistently strong offenses in the league.
