Jets signing WR Chris Hogan

Aug 16, 2020

The Jets are signing a familiar foe to help their banged up wide receiver corps.

Gang Green will be adding veteran Chris Hogan, who won two Super Bowls with the Patriots. Adam Gase confirmed the signing after practice on Sunday after revealing that wideout Vyncint Smith will be seeing a specialist for a core injury suffered recently. The coach also remained non-committal about rookie Denzel Mims’ timetable to return from a hamstring injury suffered recently.

Fantasy Impact:

Hogan had eight catches for 67 yards for the Panthers last season and it's possible he's just a placeholder for Smith and Mims until they return. The Jets are very banged up at WR so it's a situation to watch.

Panthers elevate QB Bryce Young, don't announce him as Week 1 starter yet

The Carolina Panthers have elevated rookie Bryce Young to the No. 1 quarterback spot, a move coach Frank Reich said Thursday is "the next step" in the top pick of this year's draft, becoming the Week 1 starter.

Fantasy Impact:

These are all semantics at this point. The only thing we were worried about was Young coming in and having a terrible camp, and it doesn't look like he is trending in that direction. He should be drafted as the Panthers' QB1, which puts him on the radar in 2QB and SuperFlex leagues.

Rams sign WR Demarcus Robinson

Another weapon for the Rams: LA has agreed to terms with veteran WR Demarcus Robinson.

Related Players: Puka Nacua, Ben Skowronek, Van Jefferson

Fantasy Impact:

Robinson was mostly buried on the Chiefs depth chart before having a mini breakout with the Ravens last year, catching 50 balls for 500 years. Given the Rams current wide receiver room, this is likely the best case scenario for Robinson. He makes for an interesting option as a last round dart throw, particularly if you have already have Matthew Stafford.

The Bears RB1 isn't automatically Khlalil Herbert

Though Khalil Herbert is taking first-team reps during OTAs, the competition for the RB1 with the Bears includes D'Onta Foreman, Travis Homer, and fourth-round pick Roschon Johnson.

Fantasy Impact:

In the article, running backs coach David Walker was quoted as saying, “No one has earned a seat in that room yet, and they’re all going to earn their seats from what we do now until August whatever, whenever that third preseason game is,” Walker said. “So that’s the good thing and they know it. That’s been communicated to them.”

This makes the presumed "backups" more intriguing in fantasy drafts, as they are basically free at the moment. Roschon Johnson is coming off the board as the RB46 in the 13th round, while D'Onta Foreman is the RB51, in the 14th.
