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.

Tyreek Hill News

Is a Reunion with Kansas City in the Cards for Tyreek Hill?

Tuesday, May 5, 5:51 AM

Free agent wide receiver Tyreek Hill (knee) remains unsigned, and with the NFL Draft now behind us and teams moving into the final stages of the roster-building process, rumors of potential landing spots could start to pick back up again. One team he has been linked to for months is the Kansas City Chiefs, and on a recent appearance on Kansas City radio station 96.5 The Fan, ESPN Chiefs reporter Nate Taylor gave odds above 50% that Hill would reunite with the team that drafted him in 2016. Hill is 32 years old, has shown signs of decline in each of the past two seasons, and is recovering from a gruesome knee dislocation with multiple torn ligaments, so how much he has left in the tank remains to be seen, but all the way down at WR78 in RotoBaller's dynasty rankings, he's at least worth inquiring about by depth-seeking contenders.
