Sterling Shepard News
Tuesday, September 15, 11:36 AM
The New York Jets are signing veteran wide receiver Sterling Shepard to their practice squad, according to Mike Garafolo. Shepard had a brief stint with Houston late in the preseason before being released at final cuts, and now he's heading back to New Jersey after spending the first eight seasons of his career with the Giants. The timing makes sense for a Jets team dealing with some receiver injuries. Omar Cooper Jr. is week-to-week with an ankle sprain, while Tim Patrick was placed on injured reserve over the weekend. Shepard caught 39 passes for 371 yards and one touchdown in 13 games with Tampa Bay last season, so there is still some experience here if New York needs it. For now, though, this is only a practice-squad move. Shepard would need to be elevated before he can help on game day, and there is no reason for fantasy managers to add him in standard leagues yet.

Tyreek Hill News
Tuesday, September 29, 5:59 PM
Free-agent wide receiver Tyreek Hill (knee) recently posted on social media that it's almost time for him to get off the couch. This could mean that the veteran wideout is nearing a return to the field. Hill hasn't played since tearing his ACL during his final season with the Miami Dolphins in 2025. He has been making a quick recovery and could be ready to play sometime in October. It remains to be seen how much the eight-time Pro Bowler still has left in the tank. His landing spot will go a long way to deciding his overall fantasy value, but Hill is a priority stash at the moment with his return to the field looming.
