Zay Flowers News
Wednesday, June 24, 8:41 AM
Across 17 games in 2025, Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers recorded 86 receptions for 1,211 yards and five touchdowns on 118 targets. The 25-year-old was by far and away the number one wide receiver option in his team's passing game, as veteran wideout DeAndre Hopkins finished second among Ravens wideouts in targets with 39. In 2026, Flowers may no longer have such a dominant hold on the team's target share. Baltimore wide receiver Rashod Bateman should be healthier after missing four games in 2025, and the team also used mid-round picks in the 2026 draft on wide receivers Ja'Kobi Lane and Elijah Sarratt. While Flowers is an explosive threat with the ball in his hands, he's scored only 14 touchdowns across 50 career NFL games. If his target volume dips even marginally, it could be a major issue for his fantasy production. As the 16th wide receiver off the board by average draft position, Flowers may currently be overvalued in redraft formats.

Tetairoa McMillan News
Wednesday, June 10, 11:32 AM
Carolina Panthers wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan (ankle) said he's feeling good now and is hoping to be ready for the start of training camp at the end of July, according to Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer. McMillan was initially tagged with a foot injury and missed some of organized team activities as a precaution, but he took part in the first day of mandatory minicamp on Tuesday despite dealing with some ankle soreness this offseason. It doesn't sound like a very serious issue at all for the 23-year-old, who was named the Offensive Rookie of the Year in 2025 after the Panthers took him eighth overall out of the University of Arizona. McMillan was held out of workouts on Wednesday, likely as a precaution. All signs are pointing to the young pass-catcher being a full-go for Week 1 of the 2026 regular season this fall. As Carolina's clear WR1 for QB Bryce Young, he'll be a popular WR2 target this year with upside for more if he takes the next step in Year 2. In his first 17 NFL starts a year ago, McMillan caught 70 passes for 1,014 yards and seven touchdowns on 122 targets to finish as a top-15 wideout in half-PPR scoring.
