Treylon Burks News
Saturday, October 3, 8:18 AM
Washington Commanders wide receiver Treylon Burks is expected to see more snaps in Week 4 against the Indianapolis Colts, with Terry McLaurin (hamstring) not expected to play. Burks ran the third most routes behind McLaurin and Stefon Diggs in Week 3 against Seattle and hauled in both of his targets last week for 13 yards and a touchdown. The 26-year-old is likely to share some routes with Dyami Brown and others as Washington rotates their wide receivers a bit. Despite a likely increased role, Burks doesn't project as a fantasy option for Week 4 except for deeper leagues. He is worth considering as a high-risk, high-upside option in DFS competitions given the increase in snaps.

Malik Benson News
Sunday, August 16, 10:11 AM
Las Vegas Raiders rookie wide receiver Malik Benson has earned reps with the first-team offense in training camp, according to head coach Klint Kubiak, per Levi Edwards of the team's official website. "He's earned those reps, but he's got to stay humble and stay hungry," Kubiak said. Benson has looked like the front-runner for the team's WR3 role this summer behind Tre Tucker and Jalen Nailor, although Jack Bech and Dont'e Thornton Jr. could still have something to say about that before the Week 1 regular-season opener rolls around in early September. The 23-year-old was taken in the sixth round in April from the University of Oregon after he caught 43 passes for 719 yards and six touchdowns in 15 games with the Ducks last year. Benson caught two of his four targets for 26 yards on 20 offensive snaps in the team's preseason opener on Thursday against the Arizona Cardinals, also returning a kickoff for 21 yards. For now, Benson is a name to monitor in single-year redraft leagues.
