Treylon Burks News
Thursday, July 2, 12:09 PM
Wide receiver Treylon Burks never could live up to his first-round potential when the Tennessee Titans took him 18th overall in 2022 out of the University of Arkansas, as he caught 53 of 92 targets for 699 yards and only one touchdown in 27 games (17 starts) in his first three years in the league. The Titans eventually released the 26-year-old, and the Washington Commanders took a flier on him as they searched for WR depth behind Terry McLaurin. Burks had only 10 catches for 130 yards and one touchdown on 22 targets in eight games (three starts) in his first year in D.C. in 2025, but there were flashes of why he was considered a first-round target. Deebo Samuel Sr. won't be back in free agency, and the Commanders are still searching for depth behind McLaurin. Might Burks be that guy? NFL.com's Nick Shook suggests that a full offseason of stability could serve Burks well as he heads into Year 2 in Washington. If the Commanders don't add a big name at WR before the start of the 2026 season, Burks might be the best bet to emerge as the WR2 behind McLaurin.

Parker Washington News
Friday, June 26, 7:28 PM
Jacksonville Jaguars general manager James Gladstone said shortly after the 2025 season ended that the team had started preliminary contract-extension discussions with wide receiver Parker Washington and tight end Brenton Strange, according to Michael DiRocco of ESPN. The Jags agreed to a three-year extension worth up to $48 million ($25 million guaranteed) with Strange on Wednesday. Washington, 24, stepped up in a big way in 2025 after injuries to rookie Travis Hunter and Brian Thomas Jr., finishing with 58 receptions on 95 targets for 847 yards and five touchdowns in 16 regular-season games (seven starts) in his third year in the NFL. DiRocco thinks that Washington fits right into a current group of seven wideouts in the NFL that make between $16 and $18 million. A potential new deal for Washington could be for three years and $53 million, with between $25 and $30 million guaranteed. Washington's breakout has lessened Jacksonville's need to use Hunter on offense in his second season in 2026. RotoBaller currently has Washington ranked as the No. 34 fantasy wideout, and he should once again be a go-to target for quarterback Trevor Lawrence.
