Sterling Shepard News
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.

Tyreek Hill News
Saturday, April 11, 5:12 AM
Former Chiefs and Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill remains unsigned one full month into the new league year, and at this point, it seems extremely unlikely that he will find a new home until after the NFL Draft, if at all. Hill's 2025 campaign was limited to only four games after suffering a gruesome knee injury, but his play had fallen off considerably since flirting with a 2,000-yard season in 2023, putting up only 60.8 yards per game over the past two seasons. The Dolphins released him in February, and while there were early rumors of a reunion in Kansas City, nothing has materialized, and most receiver-needy teams will now look to address the position with younger, cheaper options from a deep draft class. The 32-year-old Hill did not dismiss the idea of retirement in the immediate aftermath of the injury, but has since suggested he still has more to give after being cut for the first time in his NFL career.
