Mike Evans News
Tuesday, June 9, 5:14 AM
Playing for his first new team since the Buccaneers selected him in the first round of the 2014 NFL Draft, San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Mike Evans has been impressing his new teammates, with All-Pro tight end George Kittle recently telling reporters he brings a "new dimension" to the offense, particularly in the red zone. Evans has been complimentary of both his new system and quarterback, praising head coach and playcaller Kyle Shanahan for putting him in good opportunities against one-on-one coverage and noting that fifth-year professional Brock Purdy was one of the big reasons he came to San Francisco. The 49ers have deployed 21-personnel at the league's highest rate in each of the past two seasons, and with defenses needing to account for a fullback with an extra body near the box, Evans could see one of the highest rates of man coverage in his career, and if he can translate that into double-digit touchdown receptions, a mark he's cleared in four of the last six seasons, he'll prove to be a steal at RotoBaller's WR26.

Stefon Diggs News
Wednesday, June 10, 11:39 AM
The New England Patriots are unlikely to re-sign veteran wide receiver Stefon Diggs, according to Evan Lazar of the team's official website. "Right now, I don't think that that's something that I think we're exploring, but I would never say no," head coach Mike Vrabel said. Diggs was the team's leading receiver last year and helped the Pats get back to the Super Bowl, catching 85 of his 102 targets for 1,013 yards and four touchdowns in 17 regular-season starts, but New England cut him this offseason for salary cap purposes, then signed Romeo Doubs in free agency and acquired Pro Bowler A.J. Brown from the Philadelphia Eagles on June 1. The four-time Pro Bowler has seven 1,000-yard seasons to his name in 11 NFL seasons, but he remains unsigned in early June. Diggs' 2026 fantasy value will obviously depend on where he ultimately lands, but it won't be back in New England. The Commanders, Chiefs, Ravens, and Falcons appear to be his most likely landing spots as he heads into Year 12 in the league. Diggs is currently ranked as the No. 62 WR for 2026 at RotoBaller while he continues to look for a new squad to play for.
