Nick Westbrook-Ikhine News
Wednesday, March 18, 1:28 PM
The Indianapolis Colts announced on Wednesday that they signed free-agent wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine to an undisclosed deal. Westbrook-Ikhine had a career year in 2024 in his final year with the Tennessee Titans, catching 32 of his 60 passes for 497 yards and nine touchdowns in 17 games played (nine starts). The 28-year-old spent last season with the Miami Dolphins and came back down to Earth in a big way with only 11 receptions on 20 targets for 89 yards and no touchdowns in 15 games (three starts). Michael Pittman Jr. is no longer in Indy, but at best, Westbrook-Ikhine will be the team's No. 3 wideout to begin the 2026 campaign behind Alec Pierce and Josh Downs. Target-wise, he'd be fourth on the totem pole with tight end Tyler Warren also in the mix. Expect the former undrafted free agent out of Indiana to battle for the WR3 role with Ashton Dulin, Anthony Gould, and Laquon Treadwell.

Malachi Fields News
Thursday, June 11, 8:21 AM
After recording 36 receptions for 630 yards and five touchdowns across 12 games in his final collegiate season at Notre Dame, wide receiver Malachi Fields was selected by the New York Giants in the third round of the 2026 NFL Draft. Entering his rookie year, Fields looks to be well-positioned to make an immediate impact in New York. Superstar Giants wideout Malik Nabers (knee) is still facing an uncertain return timeline from the knee injury that ended his 2025 season. New York still has veteran wideout Darius Slayton on its roster and has been very active in the wide receiver free agent market, bringing in Darnell Mooney, Calvin Austin III, JuJu Smith-Schuster, Braxton Berrios, and Odell Beckham Jr. However, none of those veterans should hold Fields back from a significant role if he can put together a productive training camp. Dynasty managers may want to be aggressive in pursuing Fields ahead of what could be a breakout rookie season.
