Recent News

DeMario Douglas caught 2-of-2 targets for 34 yards in the Patriots' Week 10 win over the Bucs.
The two targets were a disappointment on an afternoon where Kayshon Boutte (hamstring) didn't play, but Douglas has still been more involved of late. Just not enough for him to be a viable WR4 in fantasy, PPR or otherwise. He's not going to be commanding boffo looks for Thursday's short-week game against the Jets.

Olamide Zaccheaus caught 1-of-4 targets for five yards in the Bears' Week 10 win against the Giants.
Zaccheaus had two (possibly three) drops in this one, as he saw a playing time bump with DJ Moore dealing with a potentially serious shoulder injury. Zachheuas, who had 13 receptions over the previous two games, could be surprisingly useful as the Bears' primary slot guy in Week 11 against Minnesota -- unless the Bears are intent on getting rookie WR Luther Burden more involved in the offense.

Sam Darnold completed 10-of-12 attempts for 178 yards and a touchdown in the Seahawks' Week 10 win against the Cardinals.
It was a typically efficient performance for Darnold and the Seattle offense, though it will be disappointing for fantasy managers to see the Seahawks pour on the points with Darnold throwing just 12 passes against Arizona. Darnold, coming off his dismantling of the Commanders in Week 9, ripped the Cardinals secondary in the first quarter, connecting with Jaxon Smith-Njigba for a 43-yard score before the game got out of hand with multiple defensive touchdowns for Seattle's dominant defense. Darnold will likely see more normal game script in Week 11 against the Rams. He'll be a borderline starting fantasy QB in what could be a high-scoring affair.

Hunter Henry caught 1-of-4 targets for nine yards in the Patriots' Week 10 win over the Bucs.
It was the second time in three weeks Henry was held to one catch. With Drake Maye maturing as a passer and taking more shots deep down the field, it has meant more targets for the Pats' wideouts at Henry's expense. Whereas once he appeared destined to be a low-end TE1 this season, Henry is now struggling to even produce TE2 value as the position has deepened as the season has gone on. We don't see any particular reason to throw him out there Thursday evening against the Jets.
(Nov 9 -- NBC Sports)

Mack Hollins caught 6-of-10 targets for 106 yards in the Patriots' Week 10 win over the Bucs.
Hollins' first 100-yard effort since 2022 was just the second of his career. This, after he randomly broke out for 89 yards two weeks ago. Today, Hollins was taking advantage of Kayshon Boutte's absence with a hamstring issue, but it's still a major surprise he led the Pats with double-digit targets on an afternoon where Drake Maye attempted only 31 throws. He also helped free TreVeyon Henderson for a long touchdown run with a killer block. The Pats' coaching staff has to be loving all this, but we are still skeptical Hollins is emerging as a legitimate WR4. That is especially true for a short-week Thursday night date with the Jets where the Pats are doubtful to be slinging the ball all over the yard.
