Henderson’s return ability likely buys him a chance to stick on the roster, but with Rashid Shaheed re-signed, the Seahawks don’t necessarily need Henderson to field a great return game. It’s hard to see much fantasy upside here with Jake Bobo back and Tory Horton likely to recover from his shin injuries in the near-term future.03 May 2026
Not a hard choice. Anudike-Uzomah missed all of last season with a hamstring strain. He has three sacks in 34 games and has started just three of those 34 since being drafted with the 31st pick in 2023. Anudike-Uzomah may struggle to make the roster this season.03 May 2026
Obviously this was always going to be the case, but it is now officially official. Richardson has languished on the trade block all offseason and may simply not have a real suitor at this point. Perhaps he’ll surface elsewhere once he is released or a team (Packers?) that hasn’t signed a real backup quarterback starts to understand the ramifications of that decision. For now, he’s likely to start the year behind Riley Leonard on Indy’s quarterback depth chart.03 May 2026
So if the Browns start drafting injured players left and right, you know why. Baalke was fired by the Jaguars last January and didn’t have a job in the league last year. He’ll act as a sounding board for GM Andrew Berry.

Njoku met with the Ravens two weeks ago but has drawn seemingly little interest on the free agent market, with teams content to wait until after the draft to kick the tires on the soon-to-be 30-year-old tight end. The Chargers appear to be set at the position, with breakout youngster Oronde Gadsden joined by offseason acquisition Charlie Kolar, the latter of whom has made a career of his blocking chops. New offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel hardly utilized 13-personnel during his time in Miami ...02 May 2026
“Once you start the clock, then the clock’s got to be rolling,” Reid said Saturday. “You just have to evaluate what you want to do there. But he’s in a position where he can do everything, I think.” It’s an interesting quote about his superstar quarterback, one that also brings a sense of lingering uncertainty surrounding if the team will execute the procedural move of placing him on the Physically Unable to Perform list. The expectation for most of the spring was that backup quart ...02 May 2026
“Once you start the clock, then the clock’s got to be rolling,” Reid said Saturday. “You just have to evaluate what you want to do there. But he’s in a position where he can do everything, I think.” It’s an interesting quote about his superstar quarterback, one that also brings a sense of lingering uncertainty surrounding when the team will execute the procedural move of activating him from the Physically Unable to Perform list. The expectation for most of the summer was that backu ...02 May 2026
A hamstring injury impacted Ferguson’s productivity late last season. The Rams’ “13-personnel revolution is here to stay,” which means Ferguson should see a solid snap total if he can win the starting role. Still, it is tough to predict whether a TE1 finish is realistically within his potential range of outcomes right now, given the Rams’ overall deep receiving corps.02 May 2026
Rams veteran RB Kyren Williams is expected to be the “primary third-down back and between-the-tackles runner,” which could get him most of the high-value touches. Atkins did not address whether Corum will get a chance to compete for the two-minute drill role, though. That would be big for him. If Corum does manage to take on half of the backfield touches, though, that should be enough to keep him in the low-end RB2, thanks in part to the Rams’ high-scoring offense.02 May 2026
The statement comes with positives and negatives. On the one hand, Atkins believes the sixth-round rookie is the favorite to start in three-wide receiver sets. On the other hand, Daniels’ fit is due partially to his blocking ability. Getting on the field is the first step toward fantasy-relevance, though. Daniels is a player to watch closely in the coming months.02 May 2026
Atkins still expects Williams to be the starter. Playing on third down and in the two-minute drill gives running backs an edge in PPR formats. Atkins did not specify which back will play in the latter scenario, but we imagine Williams will get the first crack at the gig. If Williams is also set to be the interior runner, it likely means he gets the first chance in the red zone. He out-snapped No. 2 RB Blake Corum in the red zone, 26-6, during the playoffs last year. That said, losing touches to ...01 May 2026
Smith spent five seasons in college, including three at Stanford and two at Texas A&M. Smith (6'/208) rushed 44 times for 205 yards and four touchdowns in his final college season, and caught 4-of-5 targets for 18 yards. Former Cowboys star RB Emmitt Smith is EJ’s father.01 May 2026
Gaye entered the NFL as an undrafted free agent with the Texans back in 2023. He was eventually waived and spent the last two seasons with the Titans and notched his lone career sack against the Texans in 2024. He has five career quarterback pressures.01 May 2026
Banks’ fifth-year option would have netted him $12.633 million in 2027. Instead, this season, he will fight for “playing time with second-round pick Colton Hood and free-agent signing Greg Newsome in his way.” Banks broke up just one pass last season and allowed an 83.1 percent catch rate.01 May 2026
Free agent RB Elijah Mitchell attended as well. Herbert appeared in three games with the Jets last year, rushing 16 times for 52 yards and earned three targets. Mitchell logged zero touches and earned one target, playing for the Patriots. The Eagles already have five running backs on the roster, so both players face uphill battles to snag a roster spot.01 May 2026
Mahomes has a chance to return in time for Week 1 after suffering season-ending ACL and LCL tears last year. It sounds like the plan is to rely on the run game and the defense for the first half of the season, as Mahomes “is working back from that injury.” For those concerned that the Chiefs might stick with that game plan all year, Veach adds that he hopes by “mid-season [or] late season, Pat’s in that groove and we have this thing cooking.” We believe he’s saying that the Chiefs in ...01 May 2026
Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes is currently rehabbing a season-ending knee injury, and although he has a chance to return in time for Week 1, it takes time for players to return to full strength. Enter new Chiefs RB Kenneth Walker, who Veach reminds us was the Super Bowl LX MVP. He adds that the team feels “real good” about the offensive line. Veach also indicates that the team intends to pass the ball more often as the season progresses, but if the run game is working, who’s to say they take t ...01 May 2026
Free agent EDGE Isaiah Thomas is trying out for the Eagles as well. No, these are not the basketball players. Jordan, 28, played for the Buccaneers last year, earning a career-best 71.0 PFF pass-blocking grade via 464 qualifying snaps. It was his first time posting a 61.0 or better. Thomas played in two games for the Lions in 2024 via practice squad elevations and notched one quarterback pressure. The Bengals signed him after that, but he never took the field for them.01 May 2026
Harris (6’7"/330) is a long, space-eating interior defender whose game is built on size, leverage flashes, and steady year-over-year production growth, culminating in a 73.3 overall grade and 77.5 run defense grade in 2025. Harris logged 693 snaps with 24 total pressures (18 hurries, three sacks), showing incremental pass-rush development while primarily functioning as a gap-controlling interior presence. He uses his length effectively to clog passing lanes (two PBUs in 2025) and can generate ...
