Tyreek Hill News
Thursday, September 10, 11:45 AM
Free-agent wide receiver Tyreek Hill is still sitting on plenty of waiver wires, with his Yahoo roster rate at 4%. There is at least a little more reason to watch him now. Agent Drew Rosenhaus said Wednesday that doctors have recommended Hill wait until sometime in October before trying to come back, but he also said teams have shown interest after seeing recent video of Hill running and cutting. That does not make Hill a usable fantasy option anytime soon. He is 32, still unsigned and coming back from a left knee dislocation with multiple torn ligaments, including his ACL. Hill had 21 catches for 265 yards and one touchdown in four games before the injury last season. There are still a lot of hurdles here, and even a signing would not mean an immediate fantasy role. But in deeper leagues with an open bench spot, Hill is worth stashing before there is a team attached to his name. Managers in shallower formats can keep watching the situation instead.

DK Metcalf News
Friday, September 11, 5:16 PM
Wide receiver DK Metcalf will be a big piece of the Pittsburgh Steelers' aerial attack in Week 1 against the Atlanta Falcons. The 28-year-old wideout was sidelined for the final few weeks of training camp with an undisclosed ailment, but came off the injury report less than a week before the Steelers' season opener. Metcalf's numbers dipped in his first season in Pittsburgh, and he finished the 2025 campaign with 59 receptions for 850 yards and six touchdowns in the air. Though Michael Pittman Jr. will be competition for targets this season, quarterback Aaron Rodgers told reporters on Sept. 2 that he "needs to get the ball" to Metcalf, so that effort should start on Sept. 13. Metcalf is a solid WR3 in fantasy headed into Week 1 and should flex his muscle as a red-zone threat against Atlanta.
