Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Van Jefferson will face off against his former team, the Atlanta Falcons, in Week 1. Jefferson has flashed potential since entering the league in 2020 and begins his fifth professional season with an opportunity to become the WR2 in Pittsburgh. The 28-year-old impressed throughout camp and drew praise from the Steelers' coaching staff all summer. Unfortunately, he'll have his work cut out for him on Sunday against a Falcons defense that limited wideouts to the sixth-fewest fantasy points in the NFL last season. Jefferson's role in new play-caller Arthur Smith's offense is worth monitoring but he is best left on fantasy waiver wires for now.

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Marquez Callaway has been released by the organization on Sunday. That didn't last long for Callaway as he was added to the roster in the beginning of the month. He has now been cut in order to make room for wide receiver Shaquan Davis on the 90-man roster. Callaway did play in the preseason opener, but he didn't do any noteworthy in the win. Possibly, Callaway is able to catch on with another organization before the season begins.
