Tyler Lockett Signing With Raiders

Monday, October 27, 9:14 AM

The Las Vegas Raiders are expected to sign former Tennessee Titans wide receiver Tyler Lockett to a deal today, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. Lockett reunites with both quarterback Geno Smith and Pete Carroll, who spent a few seasons together with the Seattle Seahawks. The veteran wideout played a small role over seven games in Tennessee, catching just 10 of his 21 targets for 70 yards and no touchdowns. He recorded 894 yards and five touchdowns in his last season under Carroll with the Seahawks in 2023, and will be hoping to carry over some of that success for a Raiders offense that is last in the league in points scored. However, Lockett is unlikely to become relevant in 12-team redraft leagues.

Marquise Brown Looking To Score In Week 8

Saturday, October 25, 4:24 PM

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Marquise Brown will take on the Washington Commanders in Week 8. After an explosive 10-catch performance in Week 1 against the Los Angeles Chargers, Brown has caught more than four passes just once. The veteran receiver only caught two passes for 14 yards in Week 7, but he did manage to find the endzone. Brown has recently been a scoring threat for the Chiefs, finding paydirt in three of the last four games. Those touchdowns are the only things keeping Brown's fantasy value afloat since he'll be behind Rashee Rice, Xavier Worthy, and Travis Kelce in the pecking order moving forward. He'll look to find the endzone this week against the Commanders, who have allowed the 10th-most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers this season. Brown is ranked WR47 in our RotoBaller Half-PPR rankings, making a desperation flex play even with six teams on bye this week.
