Roman Wilson News
Saturday, August 1, 9:36 AM
Chris Adamski of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reports that veteran wide receiver Roman Wilson is "well ahead" of rookie Germie Bernard for the WR3 role behind DK Metcalf and Michael Pittman Jr. Wilson has been an early standout in training camp this summer despite a really disappointing year in 2025 when the Steelers really needed someone to step up alongside Metcalf. The 25-year-old former third-rounder in 2024 from the University of Michigan only caught 12 passes for 166 yards and two touchdowns in 13 regular-season games (four starts) in his second year in the NFL. Wilson is looking to put that in the past, though, and his chemistry with veteran QB Aaron Rodgers cannot be discounted. His speed and versatility are what stand out the most in a Steelers offense that should be more fantasy-friendly under new head coach Mike McCarthy in 2026. Still, Wilson probably will go undrafted in most standard-sized 12-team fantasy leagues as long as he's the WR3 in a role that most likely won't demand a high volume of weekly targets.

Malachi Fields News
Wednesday, July 22, 6:57 AM
With 14 wide receivers listed on their 90-man roster, the position battle between veterans and emerging youth will be one of the most intriguing to watch when the New York Giants hold their first training camp practice on July 30, but one player almost assured of a roster spot is 2026 third-round pick Malachi Fields. At 6'4" and 222 pounds, Fields offers a different body type from the rest of the group and could position himself for an early role on the outside and in the red zone. While his collegiate production never truly matched his rare physical abilities, he could provide a big-bodied target in critical situations as 2025 first-round pick Jaxson Dart prepares for his first full season as a starter. The Giants' passing offense is fully expected to run through Malik Nabers once he is back close to full strength following a devastating 2025 knee injury, but any missed time in training camp could provide Fields an extended opportunity to develop chemistry with Dart.
