Tory Horton Healthy After Cracking Tibia as a Rookie

Saturday, August 1, 6:03 AM

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tory Horton avoided the PUP list to begin training camp and has participated fully through the opening practices of summer after his rookie season was cut short by a cracked tibia. Horton spoke with a group of reporters on Friday, and ESPN's Brady Henderson wrote about the road to recovery that has brought him to this point without restriction. Horton told the assembled media, "It's a blessing to be back on the field... Just trying to take in every moment because just like last year, you never know when it could be cut short." Horton began experiencing lower leg discomfort around Week 3 of his rookie season, but continued to play through the pain until further testing revealed a crack in his tibia that landed him on injured reserve. With the Seahawks adding Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline and signing him to a three-year deal this offseason, the team has the ability to flood the field with overwhelming speed to complement Offensive Player of the Year Jaxon Smith-Njigba, and a healthy Horton will look to find more consistent production after scoring five touchdowns across his four most productive games in 2025, while being held to a single 10-yard reception across four others.

Denzel Boston Has the Traits Needed to Overcome a Murky Situation

Sunday, July 19, 5:37 AM

The Cleveland Browns selected wide receiver Denzel Boston with the 39th overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, making him their second pick at the position after spending a first-rounder on KC Concepcion, and adding to an exciting group of young playmakers that includes 2025 rookies Harold Fannin Jr. and Quinshon Judkins. With veteran receiver Jerry Jeudy also still on the roster, Boston could struggle to make an immediate impact in an offense with lingering questions at quarterback. Deshaun Watson and Shedeur Sanders will continue their battle for the starting job when the Browns gather for training camp at the end of the month, and while both players would be wise to lean on Boston's size and contested catch ability, particularly in the red zone, the reality is that the rookie will be competing for the fourth pass-catching role in what could be an underwhelming offense. While expectations should remain tempered for 2026, at RotoBaller's WR60, Boston at least has the traits to make him an intriguing dart throw in the closing rounds of drafts.
