Quentin Johnston News
Thursday, July 16, 10:11 AM
Across 14 games in 2025, Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston recorded 51 catches for 735 yards and eight touchdowns on 84 targets. The 24-year-old appeared to be on his way to a superstar breakout after getting off to a hot start to the season, but his production slowed down, and he finished the year as the WR34 in per-game PPR scoring. Entering 2026, the Chargers have a deep group of pass-catchers between Johnston, wide receivers Ladd McConkey and Tre' Harris, and tight ends Oronde Gadsden II and David Njoku. However, veteran wide receiver Keenan Allen currently remains unsigned after leading Los Angeles in targets in 2025. The Chargers also have a new offensive coordinator in Mike McDaniel, who could help unlock Johnston's full potential. As the WR39 by current redraft ADP, Johnston could be a player for fantasy managers to target in drafts.

Jalen McMillan News
Thursday, July 16, 10:45 AM
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Jalen McMillan's 2025 season was derailed by a preseason neck injury that kept him out until Week 15. However, the 24-year-old should be healthy heading into 2026, and he will have an opportunity to earn a larger role in the Tampa Bay passing game following the offseason departure of former Bucs' wideout Mike Evans. McMillan has flashed upside across the first 17 games of his NFL career, recording 49 catches for 639 yards and eight touchdowns on 73 targets. While Emeka Egbuka is likely locked into the WR1 role in Tampa Bay, presumed Bucs WR2 Chris Godwin Jr. is entering his age-30 season and has battled both injuries and declining production in recent years. As the WR59 by current redraft ADP, McMillan profiles as a sneaky sleeper for fantasy managers to target in drafts ahead of 2026.
