Trey Palmer News
Thursday, August 28, 12:05 AM
The New Orleans Saints have claimed wide receiver Trey Palmer off waivers from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The 24-year-old was only targeted in the Bucs' third and final preseason game, as he caught one pass for 13 yards. He was a sixth-round pick in 2023 but has caught just 51 passes for 557 yards and four touchdowns over the course of two NFL seasons. After missing out on a roster spot in Tampa Bay, he'll now get a fresh start with the Saints. He'll likely rank near the bottom of the depth chart, competing with the likes of Cedrick Wilson Jr., Mason Tipton, and Devaughn Vele.

Tez Johnson News
Friday, May 8, 8:28 AM
A seventh-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Tez Johnson entered his rookie season buried on his team's depth chart. However, myriad injuries to the Bucs' wide receiver corps opened the door for Johnson to see the field, and he finished 2025 with 28 receptions for 322 yards and five touchdowns on 44 targets across 16 games (eight starts). While Johnson flashed upside when given the opportunity, he lost playing time as Tampa Bay got healthier down the stretch of the season. Johnson failed to play more than 25% of the team's offensive snaps in any of its final four games of the year. Entering 2026, Johnson projects to be behind Bucs wideouts Chris Godwin Jr., Emeka Egbuka, and Jalen McMillan on the depth chart. Tampa Bay also used a third-round pick in the 2026 NFL Draft on Georgia State wide receiver Ted Hurst, which could push Johnson even further down the target pecking order. Given the uphill battle he faces for playing time in Tampa Bay, Johnson's dynasty stock is down as he enters his second NFL season.
