Tyreek Hill Says He Has "No Power" in His Leg

Thursday, July 23, 5:13 AM

As teams around the league begin to gather for training camps, veteran wide receiver Tyreek Hill remains a free agent, and in a workout video posted to his YouTube channel on Wednesday, Hill candidly shares information about his ongoing rehab, notably stating that he has "no power in [his] left leg" ten months after undergoing LCL surgery. The video shows him using the surgically repaired leg to push off a wall, and although Hill declined to provide a timeline for his return, he reiterates that recovery is going well and expresses gratitude to those who have been a part of the process. The five-time All-Pro dislocated his knee and tore multiple ligaments in a September matchup against the Jets, and he was released by the Dolphins in February. At 32 years old, his window of fantasy relevance was already tightening. While he's hung onto a spot on RotoBaller's rankings for 2026, currently sitting at WR98, the chances of Hill contributing in a meaningful way for fantasy appear to be dwindling, and he can be avoided in any leagues without a deep bench and injured reserve slots.

Rome Odunze Will Soon Get the Opportunity to Test His Structurally Altered Foot

Monday, July 20, 6:37 AM

Injuries derailed what looked to be a promising sophomore season for Chicago Bears wide receiver Rome Odunze, but when Bears veterans gather for training camp on July 28, he'll be presented with the season's first opportunity to test his bothersome left foot in a padded practice setting. Odunze suffered a stress fracture in the foot that kept him out of the final five games of the regular season, but he elected not to have offseason surgery, opting instead for what he has called the "new normal" of a calloused and slightly shifted foot structure. Through the first four weeks of the 2025 season, Odunze was the fantasy WR3 before the foot first became an issue, but with him slowed later in the year, rookies Luther Burden III and Colston Loveland stepped into prominent roles that leave Chicago's target pecking order somewhat unsettled heading into 2026. RotoBaller ranks Odunze as the WR33, a full 12 positional spots behind Burden, but it should surprise nobody if he's able to pick up where he started last season and command the top pass-catching spot in what projects to be an ascending Chicago offense.
