Rashid Shaheed Preparing for Bigger Role

Wednesday, July 29, 5:21 PM

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Rashid Shaheed is expected to have a larger role in the offense this upcoming season. He joined the team mid-season last year, finishing with 15 receptions during his nine games with the organization. After a full offseason and training camp with the Seahawks, Shaheed is expected to have an expanded role in 2026. He now has plenty of time to get more familiar with quarterback Sam Darnold and new offensive coordinator Brian Fleury. The Seahawks don't have many reliable targets outside of Jaxon Smith-Njigba. Fantasy managers can be hopeful that Shaheed steps up and becomes more of a WR2 for this offense next season.

Adonai Mitchell Making Plays and Impressing His Coach

Sunday, August 2, 6:13 AM

In his first full offseason with the New York Jets, wide receiver Adonai Mitchell was a spring standout during OTAs and minicamp, and he continues to build chemistry with quarterback Geno Smith through the early stages of training camp. Smith threw four touchdowns during Saturday's competitive portions of practice, with Mitchell on the receiving end of two of them, and head coach Aaron Glenn has taken notice. "That combination of those two guys is really starting to impress me," Glenn told reporters. "I want to see that continue to grow, because obviously [Garrett Wilson] is going to have a lot of attention. AD is going to have to win his one-on-one's which he has all the ability in the world to be able to do that." Mitchell is RotoBaller's WR69, but as the second option in an offense that could be on the rise, he has entered the late-round sleeper discussion and could find weekly viability out of the flex spot.
