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.

Jahan Dotson News
Tuesday, March 10, 12:26 PM
Retired All-Pro wide receiver Steve Smith Sr. believes that new Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Jahan Dotson "has developed enough" to handle the No. 2 receiver role behind Drake London, according to Josh Kendall of The Athletic. The Falcons have released Darnell Mooney and KhaDarel Hodge, leaving only London, Casey Washington, and Deven Thompkins under contract in 2026. In addition to Dotson, the Falcons signed Olamide Zaccheaus on Monday. The 25-year-old former 16th overall pick by the Washington Commanders in 2022 out of Penn State only has 1,519 receiving yards and 12 touchdowns on 121 catches in his first four NFL seasons with the Commanders and Philadelphia Eagles, but his speed means he'll be "expected to play the field-stretcher role" that was handled the last two years by Mooney. Given Atlanta's big question mark at quarterback, Dotson figures to be a boom/bust WR4/5, at best, in fantasy in 2026.
