Keenan Allen (WR - CHI)

8/17/26 7:36 PM - Colts sign veteran WR Keenan Allen. One-year deal

The #Colts are signing 6x Pro Bowl WR Keenan Allen to a 1-year deal worth up to $8.32M, multiple sources tell me. A big-time weapon for Daniel Jones, as Allen reunites with HC Shane Steichen from their days together with the Chargers in a deal done by @ZekeSandhu of @KlutchSports. (Jordan Schultz on X)

FF Today's Take: With Alec Pierce (ankle) yet to practice this pre-season, the Colts are brining in wide receiver help in the form of 34-year-old Keenan Allen. He will fight for targets with Josh Downs and TE Tyler Warren in an offense led by Daniel Jones who is coming off a December Achilles injury. Once Pierce gets on the field, it will likely be Allen coming in on three wide receiver sets.

Source: Bears RB Kyle Monangai suffered a hyperextended knee. Expected to miss multiple weeks but per the MRI the outcome is considered positive after a recent practice injury. (ESPN - Jeremy Fowler)

FF Today's Take: It is important to note that "multiple weeks" still gives him time to play in the opener. Unfortunately, his absence probably means he will play limited snaps throughout September as he works on his conditioning. D'Andre Swift should be considered a strong fantasy RB2 for however long Monangai is sidelined - assuming he is still recovering next month - while Roschon Johnson could get a few snaps here and there.

Rhamondre Stevenson (RB - NE)

8/17/26 2:50 PM - Patriots likely to employ split backfield. 50-50 split for Rhamondre Stevenson, TreVeyon Henderson?

As TreVeyon Henderson enters his second season, it looks like he’ll share the backfield with Rhamondre Stevenson pretty evenly. The Patriots want to take advantage of Henderson’s big-play ability, but they believe in Stevenson a bit more to get what is blocked in front of him. So the guess is that Stevenson will be in for short-yardage situations and early downs, and that Henderson may check in for second- and third-and-long situations as long as his pass blocking holds up. (The Athletic - Chad Graff)

FF Today's Take: As The Athletic's Chad Graff suggests, Henderson will need to prove he can hold up in pass pro more than he did a year ago. It seems reasonable to assume Stevenson will enjoy a slight edge in carries and Henderson a slight advantage in catches if both stay healthy all season. That assumes Henderson earns the coaches' trust to protect Drake Maye. Both players can make strong cases to be low-end RB2s when they are healthy, and both have RB1 upside if the other misses time.
