Trends

"Nabers is coming off one of the best seasons by a rookie receiver in some time. The 2024 No. 6 overall pick led the NFL with a 35% target share and finished seventh or better among receivers in targets, receptions, yards and fantasy points despite missing two games and dealing with New York's offensive struggles. Nabers' massive target share allowed him a high floor, as he was a top-30 fantasy scorer in 13 of 15 games, including 10 straight to end the season. He appears to be the real deal and his outlook is even better in 2025 with Russell Wilson (and perhaps Jaxson Dart and/or Jameis Winston) under center. Nabers is on the short list of receivers who could lead the position in fantasy points and is a solid WR1 target in fantasy.�"

"Salomone also relayed earlier Monday that coach Brian Daboll confirmed Nabers will miss the rest of the season with a torn ACL. With Nabers officially on IR, Wan'Dale Robinson, Darius Slayton and Jalin Hyatt are poised to lead the teams' WR corps going forward, with Beaux Collins and Gunner Olszewski also available to mix in. In any case, losing the talented 2024 first-rounder for the rest of the campaign is a huge loss for a New York offense now helmed by rookie QB Jaxson Dart. Given the timing of his injury, Nabers -- who is expected to undergo surgery in the coming weeks, per Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com -- has a chance to be ready for the start of the 2026 regular season, though the Giants have yet to outline a estimated timetable for his recovery."

"A week removed from leading the Rams in receiving yards, Smith fell back to Earth in a big way against Arizona, reverting back to his typical output throughout the 2025 campaign. Smith was fourth on the Rams in receiving yardage with 303 yards on 24 catches and no touchdowns. Smith's role grew as the season progressed, settling in as one of the primary backups behind starters Puka Nacua and Davante Adams (hamstring). Smith will be an exclusive-rights free agent after the postseason and will be a candidate for a one-year deal to return to the Rams as a return specialist and role player at wide receiver once again. Smith's next opportunity to produce comes in a road matchup against Carolina in the wild-card round on Saturday."
