Broncos | More From TE Engram This Season? Sat Jun 13, 04:37 PM
We should buy into Denver Broncos TE Evan Engram's performance over the last two weeks of OTAs, according to Troy Renck of the Denver Post.
| Footballguys view: Engram has been a star over the last two days of open practice to the media, and it has many believing he's in for a bounce-back season. There's no question Engram disappointed last year, but new play-calling OC Davis Webb should have a plan for him to be more productive this year. Now, Bo Nix has yet to fully participate in practice (and might not be fully participating until training camp) as he recovers from offseason ankle surgeries. We like this drumbeat, but we will feel more excited when Nix is out there with Engram. He's a fantasy TE2 with TE1 upside. |
Chiefs | Coaches Working with RB Walker Sat Jun 13, 04:35 PM
Chiefs coaches are "starting to experiment" with what works best with RB Kenneth Walker's skills, according to ESPN's Nate Taylor.
| Footballguys view: It only makes sense to work with the veteran back to see what plays/formations/concepts he likes best. Expect under-center handoffs to be featured as well as working from out of the shotgun. Walker has been working diligently to improve his pass-protection ability, and he'll need to when tasked with protecting Patrick Mahomes. With improved receiving skills as well, Walker is doing what he can to be featured as much as possible. He's a middle-of-the-pack RB2 with RB1 upside for Fantasy GMs in 2026. |
Titans | Future of the Backfield Uncertain Sat Jun 13, 04:34 PM

Houston Texans QB C.J. Stroud has a better grasp of offensive coordinator Nick Caley's system, especially when it comes to pre-snap operation, according to quarterbacks coach Jerry Schuplinski.
| Footballguys view: Stroud also could get Tank Dell back, and 2025 second day draft picks Jayden Higgins and Jaylin Noel both look ready to do more in their second seasons. Stroud is an afterthought in 1QB leagues and a bargain in superflex leagues right now. |

Bears | Caleb Williams locked in Fri Jun 12, 05:43 PM
Chicago Bears QB Caleb Williams has shown a comfort level in the offense during OTAs and minicamp, according to Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com.
| Footballguys view: It will disappointing if Williams doesn't look more comfortable and perform better in year two piloting Ben Johnson's offense. He is priced around QB6-7, but not much cheaper than QB3-5, so the fantasy football community expects him to improve. At least one of Colston Loveland, Luther Burden III, and Rome Odunze will be a big hit if Williams takes the expected step forward. |
Patriots | Fast start for A.J. Brown Fri Jun 12, 05:43 PM
New England Patriots WR A.J. Brown has shown an 'immediate' connection with QB Drake Maye, according to Mike Reiss of ESPN.com.
| Footballguys view: Maye has immediately been throwing into small windows when targeting Brown, and the new acquisition is only encouraging his quarterback to trust him. Brown has a higher ceiling as a Patriot than he did as an Eagle, and he could help Drake Maye establish himself as the clear QB2 in fantasy football behind Josh Allen if Lamar Jackson has another injury-riddled season. |

Chiefs | Week 1 possible for Patrick Mahomes? Fri Jun 12, 05:43 PM
Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes (knee) and the team are 'both leaning into this Week 1 possibility' for Mahomes' return, according to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com.
| Footballguys view: The league putting the Chiefs at home on Monday night against the Broncos to open the season might have been a coincidence, but with every passing day it appears that it will create maximum drama for Mahomes return to the field. He had returned to the fantasy elite thanks to his running ability and extended plays, but the Chiefs might limit that element of his game early in his return from knee surgery. Mahomes is priced correctly around QB10, but could get off to a slow start as he rounds into form. |

Panthers | Jalen Coker agrees to extension Fri Jun 12, 05:43 PM
Carolina Panthers WR Jalen Coker agreed to terms on a three-year, $35 million extension with incentives worth up to $41 million, according to his agent.
| Footballguys view: Coker gave up two years of control in exchange for getting paid two years ahead of when he would enter unrestricted free agency. He is getting more guaranteed money than fellow 2024 draft class wide receivers and first round picks Brian Thomas Jr. and Xavier Worthy got on their initial contracts. Coker is the clear WR2 and one of the most underrated wide receivers in fantasy drafts right now. |
Panthers | Tetairoa McMillan dealing with injury Fri Jun 12, 05:43 PM
Carolina Panthers WR Tetairoa McMillan (foot) missed some time during the mandatory minicamp because of a foot injury but hopes to be ready for the start of training camp.
| Footballguys view: McMillan said his foot is a "little sore" and he has "no concern at all". As long as he is full go for camp next month, we agree. McMillan did injure his left foot and have a procedure on it in college, but it's not clear which foot McMillan was talking about. There's no need to move McMillan down in your rankings unless he isn't participating when camp opens. |
Vikings | Justin Jefferson to work with both QBs Fri Jun 12, 05:43 PM
Minnesota Vikings WR Justin Jefferson said he plans to work out with both QB Kyler Murray and QB J.J. McCarthy leading up to training camp.
| Footballguys view: We have a legitimate quarterback competition in Minnesota, which could be good or bad for Jefferson. If it spurs one of Murray or McCarthy to up their game and play at a high enough level to help Jefferson pay off at a still high ADP, then it is good. But if the split in first team snaps makes neither quarterback adequately prepared and the competition doesn't have a true winner - only a quarterback who wasn't as bad as his competitor - then Jefferson could be very disappointing once again this year. |

Kansas City Chiefs WR Rashee Rice (knee) is expected to be ready for the start of training camp, according to head coach Andy Reid.
| Footballguys view: The Chiefs want Rice to be healthy and at his best when the start of the regular season gets here. He could be ready for the start of camp, but we expect the Chiefs to ease Rice into action over the summer. Entering the final year of his rookie contract, Rice needs to get healthy, stay healthy, and stay out of trouble with the law if he wants to get a new deal from Kansas City. |

Link to story Browns | Jerry Jeudy sits out Thursday Thu Jun 11, 04:06 PM
Cleveland Browns WR Jerry Jeudy (hamstring) did not participate in practice Thursday, June 11, because of hamstring discomfort, according to head coach Todd Monken.
| Footballguys view: It's June, so no big deal here. Jeudy is a speed receiver who can work defenders because of his route-running ability. With two high-profile rookie receivers added (KC Concepcion, Denzel Boston), it dings the fantasy value for Jeudy. We like him as a WR5/deep flex play in 2026. |

Broncos | Bo Nix participates in walkthrough Thu Jun 11, 02:28 PM
Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton told the media on Thursday, June 11, that QB Bo Nix did some walkthrough work and will be out there for some work next week for minicamp.
| Footballguys view: Nix is coming off an ankle injury in the Divisional Round against Buffalo that needed two surgeries to correct. He's not doing much this week, but the team plans for him to do a bit more at mandatory minicamp next week. We imagine Nix will be a full participant when training camp opens for the Broncos in late July. |
Texans | David Montgomery seen as a 'three-down back' Thu Jun 11, 02:05 PM
Houston Texans RB coach Danny Barrett described RB David Montgomery, saying, 'He's a three-down back. He can do it all.'
| Footballguys view: Montgomery can do it all. The veteran was traded for in early March, and he should be the lead back for the Texans this year. Woody Marks can provide some juice as a reserve runner and receiver out of the backfield. As a lead back for the Texans, we like Montgomery as an RB2/flex option for Fantasy GMs out there. |
