Reggie Virgil News
Friday, November 13, 4:20 PM
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Reggie Virgil could see his role continue to expand with Michael Wilson (neck) on injured reserve. After riding the pine for the first four games of the season, then seeing seven targets spread over Weeks 5 through 8, the rookie had four targets last week with Kendrick Bourne (leg) out of service. The extra work resulted in just one catch for 25 yards, however. In Week 10, Virgil's potential will be capped in a meeting with the Rams. Los Angeles is allowing the fifth-fewest PPR points per game and could get cornerback Trent McDuffie (back) back from injury. Additionally, Arizona will be rolling out an untested rookie at starting quarterback, as Carson Beck will be making his regular-season debut. Virgil is projected as a WR5 and should only be used by fantasy managers in deep leagues who are dealing with big roster gaps with four NFL teams on bye.

Barion Brown News
Wednesday, September 9, 7:05 AM
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Barion Brown could get into the starting lineup for Week 1 against the Detroit Lions. Brown had a strong camp, and he's in the mix for the No. 3 receiver role (and a starting job) after the Saints placed rookie Jordyn Tyson (hamstring) on injured reserve. As it stands, Brown projects as the third receiver behind Chris Olave and Devaughn Vele, although he's also likely behind Juwan Johnson in the pecking order. Nevertheless, the rookie out of LSU caught four passes for 53 yards during the preseason, and he proved that he deserves more opportunities than fellow rookie Bryce Lance. Whether or not Brown's No. 3 receiver role is enough to get him on the fantasy radar remains to be seen, but he is definitely trending up as the Saints look to distribute Tyson's temporarily vacated targets. He's an intriguing player to stash for the first few weeks in 14+ team leagues.
