Tutu Atwell News
Thursday, March 12, 12:43 PM
The Miami Dolphins are signing former Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Tutu Atwell to an undisclosed one-year deal on Thursday, a source told Adam Schefter of ESPN. Atwell, a Miami native, will return home. The addition of Davante Adams in L.A. last year meant that Atwell's role in the Rams' offense would be reduced after he had a combined 81 catches on 129 targets for 1,045 yards and three touchdowns in 33 regular-season games (19 starts) in 2023 and 2024. The 26-year-old former second-round pick in 2021 out of Louisville only caught six passes for 192 yards and one touchdown on 15 targets last year in 10 regular-season games (four starts). There just weren't many targets to go around for Rams receivers not named Adams or Puka Nacua. In Miami, Atwell will have a shot at a bigger role behind WR1 Jaylen Waddle while working with new quarterback Malik Willis, but it still might not be a favorable outlook for fantasy purposes. Atwell is more of a deep threat on offense, averaging 14.6 yards per catch in his five-year NFL career.

Luther Burden III News
Sunday, June 28, 11:36 AM
A second-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, Chicago Bears wide receiver Luther Burden III recorded 47 catches for 652 yards and two touchdowns on 60 targets across 15 games (five starts). The 22-year-old's production took off down the stretch of the season, as he averaged five catches for 71 yards on six targets over his final five games played. Entering 2026, Burden III should see an even larger role in the Bears' passing game following the team's offseason trade of wideout DJ Moore to the Buffalo Bills. Burden III also drew rave reviews from onlookers during OTAs, while fellow Bears wideout Rome Odunze (foot) expressed that the foot issues that plagued him in 2025 may linger into 2026 and beyond. Although Burden III's dynasty stock is rising, dynasty managers may still have a chance to buy in on him before a potential superstar breakout in 2026.
