Stefon Diggs News
Saturday, March 28, 2:26 PM
The New England Patriots released veteran wide receiver Stefon Diggs on March 11, and the 32-year-old veteran pass-catcher remains on the open market at the tail end of March. The Patriots are reportedly open to Diggs returning at a reduced cost, but that's unlikely to happen after they signed former Green Bay Packers receiver Romeo Doubs in free agency. Diggs, a former fifth-round pick by the Minnesota Vikings in 2015 out of Maryland, had his seventh 1,000-yard receiving campaign in 17 regular-season games in 2025, adding 85 receptions (102 targets) and four touchdowns. The four-time Pro Bowler with the Buffalo Bills from 2020 to 2023 has been greeted with a cold market so far this offseason, but he should eventually latch on with another NFL team, although it might not happen until after the draft at the end of April. At this point in Diggs' career, it's unlikely that he'll be a bona fide WR1 for any team that he signs with.

Luther Burden III News
Sunday, April 5, 8:06 AM
Chicago Bears head coach Ben Johnson confirmed that wide receiver Luther Burden III will be a big part of the team's passing attack heading into his second year in the NFL, according to CHGO Bears. "[Luther] is exactly what we thought we were getting out of the draft last year...this guy loves football. If you took football away from him, I don't know what he would want to do with himself," Johnson said. Especially since the Bears traded receiver DJ Moore to the Buffalo Bills this offseason, Burden will be a popular breakout candidate in fantasy football in 2026 as he heads into his sophomore campaign. The 22-year-old former second-rounder out of Missouri started slow last year but finished with 47 catches for 652 yards and two touchdowns on 60 targets in 15 regular-season starts. Target volume could be an issue with Rome Odunze and tight end Colston Loveland also being involved, but Burden will be a focal point for explosive plays in Chicago's offense going forward. His dynasty/keeper value is rising by the day.
