Ricky White III Signs Practice Squad Deal with Seahawks

Sunday, August 31, 10:46 PM

The Seattle Seahawks released seventh-round rookie wide receiver Ricky White III from their active roster, but White III has re-signed with the team on a practice squad contract. The 23-year-old played one year in college at Michigan State before transferring to UNLV, where he recorded 218 catches for 3,336 yards and 24 touchdowns across three seasons. White III struggled to make much of an impact in preseason play for Seattle, hauling in three passes for 40 yards in three exhibition games. The Seahawks don't have a ton of proven depth in their receiver room behind Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Cooper Kupp. White III could conceivably work his way onto the active roster at some point in 2025, but he remains a long way off from fantasy relevance.

Jayden Higgins News

Jayden Higgins Losing Steam in Houston's WR Corps

Friday, November 6, 8:25 PM

Houston Texans wide receiver Jayden Higgins (knee) was a potential breakout candidate heading into the 2026 campaign before a torn ACL in the preseason derailed his year. Now, uncertainty remains about where the Iowa State product sits in the team's receiving hierarchy. Higgins was slated to operate as the team's No. 2 pass catcher behind veteran Nico Collins this season, though he never got the chance. In the meantime, teammate Tank Dell got healthy, and the team traded for former Arizona Cardinal wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. - reuniting him with his old college quarterback, C.J. Stroud. Higgins appeared to have the tools to handle a complementary role in an NFL passing game, but now looks to be at best Houston's third option when he's healthy. It's an unfortunate outcome for a young wideout with potential, but also too early in his career to peg him as a bust or count him out. For now, owners must take a wait-and-see approach with the 23-year-old.
