Romeo Doubs News
Friday, September 18, 10:19 PM
New England Patriots wide receiver Romeo Doubs is expected to step up as the team's de facto No. 1 target in Week 2, but he's not a lock to produce in fantasy football. Doubs had a very underwhelming performance in Week 1, failing to haul in any of his three targets. Poor route-running and drops plagued the veteran's Patriots debut last week, and it came at a very poor time, as he'll now be tasked with leading the wide receiver room after A.J. Brown (ankle) was placed on injured reserve. There's a real chance that Doubs can turn this bigger role into flex-level fantasy performance, but there's also some inherent risk given his poor play in the season opener. The 26-year-old ranks as RotoBaller's WR40 ahead of his matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers, who allowed the fewest fantasy points to receivers in Week 1 (albeit against a Cooper Rush-led Falcons offense).

Jalen Tolbert News
Sunday, September 13, 11:29 AM
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jalen Tolbert was a healthy scratch ahead of his team's Week 1 road game against the Raiders in Las Vegas. The fifth-year wideout enters his first season with the Dolphins after spending his first four years with the Dallas Cowboys, amassing 91 receptions for 1,093 yards and 10 touchdowns. Tolbert was expected to be one of new starting quarterback Malik Willis' favorite targets ahead of training camp, but rookie Caleb Douglas surpassed him on the depth chart by the end of preseason play. Malik Washington and Chris Bell are expected to be top targets as the season gets underway, while running back De'Von Achane leads what is expected to be a run-heavy offense in 2026. Tolbert is still a stash candidate in dynasty leagues, but Sunday's healthy scratch confirms he isn't a weekly fantasy asset in redraft formats to start the season.
