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.

Pat Bryant News
Monday, June 22, 8:28 AM
A third-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, Denver Broncos wide receiver Pat Bryant recorded 31 catches for 378 yards and a touchdown across 15 games (seven starts) as a rookie. The 23-year-old saw his involvement in the Denver passing game grow down the stretch of the season, as he averaged four catches and 45 receiving yards on six targets per game over his final five contests. However, Bryant's place in the Broncos' target pecking order took a hit over the offseason when the team traded for star wide receiver Jaylen Waddle from the Miami Dolphins. Entering 2026, Bryant appears to be battling with Troy Franklin for the WR3 role in Denver behind Waddle and veteran Courtland Sutton. In the immediate, Bryant's production upside is likely limited. Still, with Sutton entering his age-31 season in 2026, Bryant's eventual path to a significant role in Denver remains clear. For rebuilding dynasty managers, Bryant is a worthwhile target.
