Tyquan Thornton News
Tuesday, March 10, 1:40 PM
The Kansas City Chiefs re-signed wide receiver Tyquan Thornton to a two-year, $11 million deal on Monday night, and ESPN's Nate Taylor thinks the Chiefs "should be able to offer him more snaps and more opportunities." The 25-year-old was one of KC's best receivers in 2025, especially early on when both Xavier Worthy (shoulder) and Rashee Rice (suspension) were out. Thornton had a career-high 438 receiving yards and three touchdowns on 19 catches in his first year working with quarterback Patrick Mahomes. "He's the GOAT in my eyes, man," Thornton said of Mahomes. "He's a competitor, and he makes me so much better. It was an honor to go out there and catch those passes from him." As things currently stand, Thornton looks like the WR3 behind Rice and Worthy. His big-play potential is intriguing, though, as a late-round flier in what should be an improved Chiefs offense.

Elijah Sarratt News
Wednesday, July 8, 11:18 AM
Baltimore Ravens rookie wide receiver Elijah Sarratt has enough dynasty appeal to keep stashed, but his redraft case still needs help. The fourth-round rookie brings a real college resume after catching 65 passes for 830 yards and an FBS-leading 15 touchdowns at Indiana last season, and Baltimore's own draft coverage has pointed to his size, contested-catch ability, and possible red-zone usefulness. That matters in a Ravens offense that could use more big targets after adding Sarratt and third-rounder Ja'Kobi Lane. The problem is that Sarratt is not walking into a clean role. Zay Flowers and Rashod Bateman sit atop the depth chart, Devontez Walker has been framed as the current favorite for No. 3 receiver work, and Lane was drafted a round earlier. RotoBaller's board also has Sarratt outside the top 240 overall and around WR99, with no listed ADP. He is a good taxi-squad stash and late rookie-draft swing, but redraft managers can leave him alone unless August reports point to a real offensive role.
