Zay Jones News
Wednesday, November 12, 12:40 PM
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Zay Jones (Achilles) tore his Achilles in last week's loss to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday and will miss the rest of the season, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Additionally, the Cardinals will be without top wideout Marvin Harrison Jr. "this week and possibly longer" after he underwent surgery for appendicitis. Arizona's receiving corps will be very thin for quarterback Jacoby Brissett on Sunday against the division-rival San Francisco 49ers. Tight end Trey McBride should be a target hog, with Michael Wilson and Greg Dortch stepping up as the top two receiving options in the passing attack. Jones, 30, wasn't really on the fantasy radar to begin with in 2025 in a struggling Cardinals offense. He will finish with just 12 catches for 183 yards and no touchdowns in his eight games played.

John Metchie III News
Wednesday, March 11, 1:44 PM
Former New York Jets wide receiver John Metchie III is signing an undisclosed one-year deal with the Carolina Panthers on Wednesday, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Metchie will reunite with quarterback Bryce Young, with whom he played college ball at Alabama. The 25-year-old was originally a second-round pick (44th overall) by the Houston Texans in the 2022 NFL draft. Metchie had an unfortunate setback with a cancer diagnosis and missed the entire 2022 season, but he has slowly bounced back and posted a career-high 274 receiving yards and two touchdowns on 33 receptions in 16 games (seven starts) with the Jets and Philadelphia Eagles last year. Metchie will now head to the NFC South, where he'll serve in a depth role behind Tetairoa McMillan and Jalen Coker. His previous connection with Young should help, but barring an injury ahead of him on Carolina's WR depth chart, it's hard to imagine Metchie having much weekly fantasy football appeal in 2026.
