Sterling Shepard May Be Aging Out of Fantasy Relevance

Sunday, February 22, 10:27 AM

Across 13 games in 2025, Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Sterling Shepard recorded 39 receptions for 371 yards and one touchdown on 53 targets. With veteran Buccaneers wideouts Mike Evans and Chris Godwin Jr. sidelined for a significant portion of the year by injury, Shepard saw increased opportunity for playing time, particularly early in the season. However, he was largely unable to hold off Bucs rookie wide receivers Emeka Egbuka and Tez Johnson, and the late-season return of second-year wideout Jalen McMillan pushed Shepard even further down the depth chart. Shepard is now set for unrestricted free agency, and a change of scenery away from the crowded wide receiver room in Tampa Bay could help his fantasy outlook. Still, Shepard is entering his age-33 season and has not recorded 40 receptions in a season since 2020. Regardless of where he ends up in 2026, Shepard's fantasy-relevant days may be behind him.

Tylan Wallace Not on the Fantasy Radar in Week 12

Saturday, November 22, 12:15 PM

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Tylan Wallace has seen a bit of an increase in snap count since Rashod Bateman (ankle) has been sidelined. The only issue is that the added snaps haven't turned into production since the top targets are still playing. Wallace can be a decent deep threat with his speed, but a lot of the time, the offensive line hasn't given Lamar Jackson enough time for deep routes to progress. In Week 12, the Ravens take on the New York Jets, who rank 13th overall (23rd over last four weeks) against the position. Even with that being said, Wallace is projected as the WR112 in half-PPR leagues, so he's not a recommended start in most formats.
