Trent Taylor News
Wednesday, June 4, 6:35 PM
The San Francisco 49ers announced on Tuesday that they placed wide receiver Trent Taylor (undisclosed) on Injured Reserve and signed receiver Malik Knowles to an undisclosed one-year deal in a corresponding move. It's unclear exactly what Taylor's injury is, but he's now expected to miss the entire 2025 season. The 31-year-old former fifth-round pick (177th overall) in 2017 out of Louisiana Tech spent the first three years of his career in the Bay Area before going to the Cincinnati Bengals for two years and the Chicago Bears in 2023. In just two games in his return to the Niners last season, Taylor caught his only target for an 11-yard pickup. Taylor has been a depth piece in his career and has a total of 88 receptions for 845 yards and only three touchdowns on 138 targets over 80 games played (three starts) since debuting in 2017.

Tyquan Thornton News
Tuesday, March 10, 1:40 PM
The Kansas City Chiefs re-signed wide receiver Tyquan Thornton to a two-year, $11 million deal on Monday night, and ESPN's Nate Taylor thinks the Chiefs "should be able to offer him more snaps and more opportunities." The 25-year-old was one of KC's best receivers in 2025, especially early on when both Xavier Worthy (shoulder) and Rashee Rice (suspension) were out. Thornton had a career-high 438 receiving yards and three touchdowns on 19 catches in his first year working with quarterback Patrick Mahomes. "He's the GOAT in my eyes, man," Thornton said of Mahomes. "He's a competitor, and he makes me so much better. It was an honor to go out there and catch those passes from him." As things currently stand, Thornton looks like the WR3 behind Rice and Worthy. His big-play potential is intriguing, though, as a late-round flier in what should be an improved Chiefs offense.
