  • Alex Bachman WR | LV

    Raiders' Alex Bachman: Limited offensive output in 2025

    Bachman caught two passes for 12 yards in 13 games during the 2025 season.

    Bachman served as a depth receiver and saw the majority of his playing time on special teams, as he played just 49 offensive snaps. The 29-year-old is set to be a free agent this offseason and will look to earn a larger role with whatever team he lands on during the 2026 campaign.

  • Patriots' DeMario Douglas: Decreased usage in 2025

    Douglas caught 31 of 46 targets for 447 yards and three touchdowns while logging seven carries for 21 yards over 17 contests during the 2025 regular season.

    Douglas garnered only 288 total offensive snaps, which was 186 fewer than his previous low (474) from his rookie campaign in 2023. As a result of the smaller workload, the wide receiver recorded the fewest receptions and receiving yards of his three-year career with New England. With Stefon Diggs, Kayshon Boutte, Mack Hollins and 2025 third-rounder Kyle Williams all under contract at wide receiver for next season, Douglas will enter 2026 on an expiring deal with limited upside.

  • Patriots' Kyle Williams: Limited production in rookie season

    Williams caught 10 of 21 targets for 209 yards and three touchdowns while also registering 290 kickoff-return yards over 17 contests during the 2025 regular season.

    Williams spent the majority of his rookie campaign as the team's No. 5 option at wide receiver behind Stefon Diggs, Kayshon Boutte, Mack Hollins and DeMario Douglas. Williams was able to notch only two multi-catch performances while going without a reception in nine games. The wide receiver was able to find the end zone in three separate contests, most notably breaking loose for a 72-yard score in Week 10 against the Buccaneers. The 2025 third-rounder will look to take a step up in his sophomore campaign with New England next year.

  • Patriots' Kayshon Boutte: Steady production in third campaign

    Boutte caught 33 of 46 targets for 551 yards and six touchdowns over 14 games during the 2025 regular season.

    Boutte saw a slight dip in receiving yards while reeling in 10 fewer passes in his third campaign with New England, but his six scores were double his combined total from his first two years in the league. The wide receiver became a go-to option for second-year quarterback Drake Maye on the deep ball, as his 16.7 yards per reception ranked fifth in the NFL during the regular season. Additionally, Boutte caught nine of 20 targets for a team-high 168 receiving yards, including a 32-yard touchdown, over the Patriots' four postseason contests.

  • Pat Bryant WR | DEN

    Broncos' Pat Bryant: Shows improvement in rookie season

    Bryant (hamstring) ended the 2025 campaign with 31 receptions on 49 targets for 378 yards and a touchdown across 15 regular-season games. He added four grabs on four targets for 34 yards and one rush for one yard in two playoff games.

    Despite a slow start to his first season, Bryant became a more important part of the Broncos' aerial attack as the campaign progressed. The rookie wideout worked his way up the depth chart to operate as Denver's No. 3 receiver, averaging six targets per game across his final four regular-season contests. Bryant suffered a hamstring injury in the second quarter of the AFC Championship Game loss to the Patriots, which led to him ultimately being ruled out for the second half of the game. Assuming the 23-year-old is back to full strength before next season, he should play a significant role as a pass catcher in head coach Sean Payton's offense alongside fellow receivers Courtland Sutton and Troy Franklin. Bryant's continued development and the overall improvement of Denver's offense could allow the Illinois product to take a major step forward in 2026.

  • Patriots' Jeremiah Webb: Staying with Patriots

    Webb signed a reserve/future contract with the Patriots on Tuesday.

    Webb joined the Patriots' practice squad in late August and was elevated to the active roster ahead of the wild-card win over the Chargers, though he didn't see the field. The 24-year-old wideout has yet to make his NFL debut after posting 36 receptions for 649 yards and five touchdowns during his final season at South Alabama in 2024.

  • John Jiles WR | NE

    Patriots' John Jiles: Staying in New England

    Jiles signed a reserve/future contract with the Patriots on Tuesday.

    The West Florida product spent his 2025 campaign with the Patriots' practice squad and could have an opportunity to compete for a spot on the active roster in camp. Jiles has yet to appear in an NFL game after recording 1,081 receiving yards and 13 touchdowns on 54 catches during his final collegiate season in 2023.

  • Jake Bobo WR | SEA

    Seahawks' Jake Bobo: Played through hand injury

    Bobo had a pin inserted into his hand to repair a metacarpal fracture the day after Seattle's 31-27 NFC Championship win over the Rams, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.

    The wideout told reporters that he had his stitches removed just one day before the Seahawks' 29-13 Super Bowl LX win over the Patriots. Despite the injury, Bobo played 35 snaps during Sunday's victory and excelled as a blocker, helping Seattle rush for 141 yards. The 27-year-old appeared in 14 regular-season games and caught four of five targets for 53 yards and a touchdown. Bobo is set to hit restricted free agency this offseason, and the Seahawks will have the opportunity to match any offer he receives once they have given him a tender.

  • Mack Hollins WR | NE

    Patriots' Mack Hollins: Bright spot in SB LX loss

    Hollins recorded four receptions (on eight targets) for 78 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 29-13 loss to the Seahawks in Super Bowl LX.

    Hollins led the Patriots in targets and receiving yards, with the majority of his production coming on consecutive catches early in the fourth quarter. The first went for 24 yards over a crowded middle of the field, and Hollins then beat a couple of Seattle defenders to the corner of the end zone for a 35-yard score. Hollins remains under contract for 2026 and could be back with New England, though the team could also opt to cut and save roughly $4.5 million on the salary cap.

  • Rashid Shaheed WR | SEA

    Seahawks' Rashid Shaheed: Pair of grabs in SB LX victory

    Shaheed brought in two of five targets for 27 yards, rushed once for minus-5 yards, returned one kickoff for 20 yards and ran back two punts for 16 yards during the Seahawks' 29-13 win over the Patriots in Super Bowl LX on Sunday.

    The speedy Shaheed played his usual multi-faceted role, and he was just inches shy of a much bigger night, as Christian Gonzalez managed to knock away a deep pass intended for him down the middle early in the second quarter. Shaheed did manage to contribute gains of 16 and 11 yards on the two catches he recorded, and he made solid complementary contributions on special teams. The fourth-year pro played a relatively modest role in Seattle's air attack after coming over via trade from the Saints midway through the campaign, and it remains to be seen if the Seahawks will be interested in a reunion with the soon-to-be unrestricted free agent.
