Tre Tucker News
Tuesday, June 30, 7:50 AM
Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Tre Tucker had the most productive season of his career in 2025, recording 57 catches for 696 yards and five touchdowns on 92 targets across 17 games. With star Raiders tight end Brock Bowers battling injury for most of the year and veteran wideout Jakobi Meyers being dealt at the trade deadline, Tucker took on a higher-volume role in his team's offense. Las Vegas added a pair of veteran wideouts in Jalen Nailor and Dareke Young in free agency, neither of whom profiles as a significantly high-volume target earner. Still, Bowers should be healthier in 2026, and young Raiders wideouts Jack Bech and Dont'e Thornton Jr. could take on larger roles as well. Even in his emergent campaign last season, Tucker averaged an underwhelming 1.19 yards per route run. In dynasty formats, managers could be wise to try to take advantage of a potential sell-high window on Tucker ahead of 2026.

Ricky Pearsall News
Thursday, July 2, 11:47 AM
Before San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall's NFL career even got off the ground, he suffered a gunshot wound during an attempted robbery that caused him to miss the first six weeks of his rookie campaign in 2024. He played in 11 games (four starts), catching 31 of 46 targets for 400 yards and three touchdowns. The 25-year-old former 31st overall pick out of the University of Florida then suffered a hamstring injury and a PCL injury in his knee in 2025 that limited him to just nine starts. Pearsall finished with 36 receptions on 53 targets for 528 yards and no touchdowns in nine regular-season starts. The Niners let Jauan Jennings walk in free agency in the offseason, but they added future Hall of Famer Mike Evans and slot man Christian Kirk, while taking De'Zhaun Stribling in the second round of the NFL draft. San Fran's WR room is deeper, which means that opposing defenses shouldn't be able to key in on him in his third season. NFL.com's Nick Shook believes Pearsall could be set up for a breakout season. He's a risk/reward WR4/flex that is certainly worth a late-round selection in fantasy drafts for his upside when healthy.
