Tyreek Hill News
Friday, August 21, 9:36 AM
Free-agent wide receiver Tyreek Hill is not expected to sign with a team before the regular season begins. Agent Drew Rosenhaus said on "The Pat McAfee Show" that Hill looked good in a recent video of him running hills, but added that Hill still feels he has a long way to go, according to David Furones. Hill is trying to make his way back from the serious left knee injury he suffered last September, when he dislocated the knee and tore multiple ligaments, including his ACL. He underwent two surgeries and was released by Miami in February after failing a physical. Hill had 21 catches for 265 yards and one touchdown in four games before the injury last season. There is still a path to a 2026 return, but this latest update makes September look increasingly unrealistic. For fantasy managers, Hill is a speculative stash in deeper leagues rather than someone to draft with an early-season role in mind.

DK Metcalf News
Wednesday, August 19, 10:04 AM
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf says he's "fine" despite an undisclosed injury that has kept him out for roughly the past week and a half, according to Nick Farabaugh. There is also no long-term concern about his availability for Week 1. Metcalf has missed a decent stretch of August work and did not dress for Pittsburgh's preseason opener against Green Bay, with head coach Mike McCarthy saying over the weekend that he would be hard-pressed to practice this week. The Steelers haven't seemed interested in pushing him back onto the field. Metcalf played 15 games in his first season with Pittsburgh, catching 59 passes for 850 yards and six touchdowns. The missed time isn't ideal with the regular season getting closer, but Wednesday's update takes some of the worry out of it. If Metcalf is indeed fine for Week 1, Pittsburgh can afford to be patient with him now.
