Mike Evans News
Saturday, May 30, 8:59 AM
San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Mike Evans will be 33 to begin the 2026 season and is coming off a disappointing injury-tarnished year in which he failed to reach 1,000 receiving yards for the first time in his career. Starting fresh with a new team for the first time since the Buccaneers made him the seventh overall pick in the 2014 NFL Draft, he has fallen all the way to WR40 in RotoBaller's latest dynasty rankings, making him a strong bounce-back candidate and a lower-cost trade target for contending managers. Evans has been one of the league's most efficient pass-catchers with two or fewer receivers on the field, and in moving from one of the league's heaviest rates of 11 personnel to a Niners team that ran the highest percentage of plays with a fullback on the field, those opportunities should only increase. A growing history of soft tissue injuries should not be ignored, but if Evans can stay healthy in 2026, he's capable of returning immediate value as a short-term dynasty buy.

Garrett Wilson News
Sunday, May 31, 11:32 AM
After playing in 51 consecutive games to open his career, New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson (knee) appeared in just seven games in 2025 due to a knee injury. As a result, the 25-year-old finished the year with 36 receptions for 359 yards and four touchdowns on 59 targets. Wilson has been a highly productive player since entering the NFL in 2022, recording three straight seasons with at least 80 catches and 1,000 receiving yards before 2025. He's been consistently held back by questionable quarterback play in New York, which has limited his fantasy upside. While Wilson may face familiar problems in 2026, the presence of veteran quarterback Geno Smith in New York should at least bring some stability to a Jets passing game that was led by a combination of Justin Fields, Tyrod Taylor, and Brady Cook last season. Wilson also remains the obvious number one target in New York even after the team used first-round picks in the 2026 NFL Draft on wideout Omar Cooper Jr. and tight end Kenyon Sadiq. In dynasty formats, Wilson's injury may have created a buy-low window for managers to capitalize on leading into 2026.
