Roschon Johnson, Tyler Scott Inactive In Week 1

Sunday, September 8, 11:38 AM

Chicago Bears running back Roschon Johnson and wide receiver Tyler Scott are both healthy scratches for Week 1 against the Tennessee Titans. This news offers some insight into the Bears' offensive pecking order this year, with Johnson's absence being particularly interesting. He was a fourth-round pick in 2023 and made a solid impression as a rookie last year, but the Bears will opt for Travis Homer as their third-string running back behind starter D'Andre Swift and backup Khalil Herbert. Scott's absence is less of a surprise but still noteworthy considering he played 17 games in 2023 and is coming off a solid preseason. Regardless of Scott's availability, DJ Moore, Keenan Allen, and Rome Odunze are locked in as the Bears' top three receivers.

Saints Stay Local, Select LSU's Barion Brown

Saturday, April 25, 12:30 PM

The New Orleans Saints have selected LSU wide receiver prospect Barion Brown with the No. 190 overall pick in the sixth round of the 2026 NFL Draft. Brown was a three-year contributor at Kentucky before transferring to LSU for his final collegiate season. Across 13 games in 2025, he caught 53 passes for 532 yards and one touchdown. He's not a major touchdown threat, but he can still be a dependable depth receiver for Tyler Shough in New Orleans' up-and-coming offense. This is the third receiver the Saints have drafted this year, following Jordyn Tyson and Bryce Lance. Although he's a talented player, Brown will be buried too low in the pecking order to justify pursuing him in fantasy leagues. He can be avoided in most fantasy drafts.
