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.

Eagles and TE Dallas Goedert agree to reworked deal for 2025

Mike Garafolo

yesterday · 10:57 AM EDT

The Eagles and TE Dallas Goedert have agreed to a reworked deal for this season, as Jeff McLane stated. The team had trade offers for Goedert during the draft. He was in the loop. Decided to remain with the team and selflessly restructured to try running it back.

Related Players: Grant Calcaterra, Kylen Granson, Harrison Bryant

Fantasy Impact:

As Garafolo touches on, it seemed like a draft-day trade was very much on the table, but once the smoke cleared, it seemed obvious that the vet would remain on the team for at least one more year. Philadelphia currently has seven tight ends on the roster, so expect to see a lot of those names drop off throughout the summer. Goedert should once again be considered a touchdown-dependent low-end TE1 on a great offense.

Jaguars release WR Gabe Davis

The Jaguars have released WR Gabe Davis, who was due $12.5M this season.

Fantasy Impact:

Davis played in only 10 games for Jacksonville last season, accruing a 20-239-2 stat line while playing mostly out wide. If he were to have stuck around, he likely would have been a deep rotational piece playing behind the newly-acquired Dyami Brown (and Travis Hunter).

Steelers trade WR George Pickens to Cowboys for trade compensation

Details of the Steelers-Cowboys trade expected to be completed today.

Steelers receive 2026 3rd-round pick and a 2027 5th-round pick.

Cowboys receive WR George Pickens and a 2027 6th-round pick.

Fantasy Impact:

With the relative lack of impactful Draft compensation, it's a wonder this didn't get done prior to or during the 2025 NFL Draft, but Pickens is on the move regardless.

For the Steelers, this makes Roman Wilson a little more intriguing as he heads into Year 2, and Freiermuth should see a little bump closer to high-end TE2 consideration.

For the Cowboys, this slightly lowers CeeDee Lamb's potentially astronomical target share, but gives QB Dak Prescott a much more reliable No. 2 option in what was already projected as a pass-heavy offense with Javonte Williams and Miles Sanders making up their backfield. Pickens is now more of a high-end WR3 than a fringe WR4.
