Tory Horton to Miss a Period of Time

Friday, August 21, 5:22 PM

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tory Horton (undisclosed) is going to be sidelined for a period of time, according to Field Gulls. Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald said Horton is dealing with an undisclosed ailing issue, but he didn't want to go into detail. There is speculation that it's a setback from his shin injury from last season, but nothing has been confirmed. The expectation is that Horton will be healthy for Week 1, but there isn't a timetable for his return yet. Horton is more of a dynasty stash and isn't someone that needs to be rostered in 12-team redrafts to begin the season.

Omar Cooper Jr. Runs with Starters in Second Preseason Game But Finishes with Only One Catch

Saturday, August 22, 5:37 AM

New York Jets rookie wide receiver Omar Cooper Jr. got some run with the team's first-team offense during Friday's preseason win over the Steelers, but he stayed in the game well beyond most of the starters, who were pulled after a 10-play, 69-yard touchdown drive to open the night, and he didn't crack the stat sheet until the final series of the second quarter. Cooper ended his night with a single catch for nine yards, with the game serving as a continuation of what has been a quiet training camp. A first-round pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, the rookie has yet to secure anything close to a locked-in starting role, still competing with Isaiah Williams, who led the team with five targets on Friday, for the primary slot role in three-receiver sets. One of the least hyped first-rounders in recent memory, Cooper is being drafted as the WR65 in 2026 lineup leagues.
