  • Isaiah Likely TE | BAL

    Ravens' Isaiah Likely: Adversity-filled 2025

    Likely finished the season with 27 catches for 307 yards and one touchdown on 36 targets.

    It was a tough season for Likely, who was poised to build on his career year from 2024 when he had 42 catches for 477 yards and six touchdowns. Instead, Likely posted career lows across the board and also missed three games. In fairness, Likely suffered a foot injury in camp that required surgery, which could explain the drop-off in production. There were also contextual issues. Lamar Jackson missed some time, and Baltimore ended up with the sixth-fewest passing yards in the league, along with the fewest pass attempts. Likely is set to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason, and with Mark Andrews having recently inked an extension in Baltimore, it's fair to wonder if Likely will be playing elsewhere in 2026.

  • Broncos' Lil'Jordan Humphrey: Finishes another quiet season

    Humphrey ended the 2025 regular season with 13 receptions on 25 targets for 156 yards and a touchdown across 10 games.

    After beginning the season with the Giants and recording just four grabs for 55 yards over three games, Humphrey was signed away from New York's practice squad by the Broncos ahead of the team's Week 11 matchup against the Chiefs. The veteran wideout was reunited with the Broncos after spending the previous two seasons in Denver. He joined a crowded wide receiver room, providing depth in a familiar offense behind Courtland Sutton, Troy Franklin, Pat Bryant and Marvin Mims. Humphrey will become an unrestricted free agent this offseason, so he'll hope to garner interest from teams around the league ahead of the 2026 campaign. With that said, it wouldn't be surprising to see the 27-year-old re-sign with the Broncos based on his familiarity with head coach Sean Payton's system, though he would have an uphill battle for meaningful playing time once again.

  • Tyler Badie RB | DEN

    Broncos' Tyler Badie: Minimal production in 2025 campaign

    Badie ended the 2025 regular season with eight carries for 23 yards, adding 19 receptions on 31 targets for 141 yards across 16 games.

    Badie was mostly an afterthought in 2025, with teammates J.K. Dobbins (foot) and RJ Harvey stealing the show for the vast majority of the season. The second-year running back was used sparingly out of the backfield, primarily as a pass catcher in hurry-up situations. Not surprisingly, Badie played a complementary role behind Dobbins and Harvey this season. After Dobbins landed on IR, teammate Jaleel McLaughlin leaped Badie on the depth chart as well. The 25-year-old Badie will become an exclusive rights free agent this offseason, so if Denver offers him a tender, he'll be back with the Broncos next season. If Denver decides to not make the offer, the Missouri product will become an unrestricted free agent and could join another squad's running-back rotation as a depth option.

  • Marvin Mims WR | DEN

    Broncos' Marvin Mims: Disappointing season in 2025

    Mims ended the 2025 regular season with 37 receptions on 51 targets for 322 yards and a touchdown, adding 12 rushes for 78 yards and a score across 15 games. He also scored one punt-return touchdown.

    Mims entered the year with high hopes to take a step forward in Denver's passing attack, yet the speedy wide receiver never became a significant part of the Broncos' offensive plans this season. The third-year wideout's 322 receiving yards marked a career low for the Oklahoma product. With teammate Courtland Sutton operating as the Broncos' unquestioned No. 1 receiver and both Troy Franklin and Pat Bryant emerging into prominent roles this season, Mims was left very few targets to have an impact offensively. Many of his looks came close to the line of scrimmage, with his limited downfield targets capping his overall upside. Mims is set to enter the final year of his rookie contract in 2026 before becoming an unrestricted free agent in 2027. The 23-year-old will likely continue to struggle to produce consistently for fantasy purposes next season, especially with the development of the team's other young receivers within head coach Sean Payton's offense.

  • Calen Bullock SAF | HOU

    Texans' Calen Bullock: Arrow points up

    Bullock registered 64 tackles (44 solo), four interceptions and one forced fumble over 17 regular-season games in 2025.

    Bullock built off a productive rookie season in 2024 and is entrenched on the back end of Houston's top-ranked defense. His biggest effort came in the win over Buffalo in Week 12, when he picked off Josh Allen twice and forced a fumble -- two of those turnovers led to points, and the third iced the Texans' win. Bullock has started all 34 games during the regular season since being drafted in the third round of the 2024 NFL Draft and has nine interceptions for Houston.

  • E.J. Speed LB | HOU

    Texans' E.J. Speed: Reduced role in Houston

    Speed recorded 62 tackles (33 solo) and one pass defensed over 16 regular-season games in 2025.

    Speed's first season in Houston looked nothing like the trend he established in his final two years with Indianapolis, for whom he posted 102 and 142 tackles in 2023 and 2024, respectively. Houston's top-ranked defense operated mostly out of the nickel, which naturally limits at least one linebacker. Defensive back Jalen Pitre, who brings the physicality of a linebacker, gave the Texans more flexibility at the expense of Speed's playing time. The linebacker played 50 percent or fewer of the defensive snaps in 10 of 16 games. He'll become an unrestricted free agent in the offseason.

  • Alex Wright DE | CLE

    Browns' Alex Wright: Records career highs in 2025

    Wright had career highs in tackles (37) and sacks (5.5) along with one pass defensed and one forced fumble over 14 regular-season games in 2025.

    Like other players on the defensive line, Wright operated outside the limelight that shone on Myles Garrett, who established a new NFL record with 23.0 sacks in 2025. However, Wright's most productive season of his four-year career did not go unnoticed, as the Browns signed him to a three-year extension in November of 2025. Playing opposite Garrett, who draws a lot of attention, could lead to more sacks for Wright in 2026.

  • Mason Graham DT | CLE

    Browns' Mason Graham: Quiet first season

    Graham had 49 tackles (seven for loss), 0.5 sacks and four passes defensed over 17 regular-season games in 2025.

    It was a quiet rookie season for Graham, the fifth overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, who toiled away on the interior in the shadow of edge rusher Myles Garrett. He was also overshadowed by fellow rookie and linebacker Carson Schwesinger (ankle), who led the team with 156 tackles, but Graham was a steady presence at defensive tackle. His 763 snaps led all rookie interior linemen, and he finished second on the team in quarterback pressures (36) behind Garrett. Graham did enough to earn a nod on the All-Rookie team.

  • Tyson Campbell CB | CLE

    Browns' Tyson Campbell: Seamless transition after trade

    Campbell had a career-high 87 tackles (54 solo), two forced fumbles and one interception over a combined 17 regular-season games for Jacksonville and Cleveland in 2025.

    Campbell was dealt from the playoff-bound Jaguars to the Browns after five games and didn't miss a beat with his new team. He forced a fumble in his first game following the trade then returned an interception for a touchdown in a win over the Dolphins in his second game. He's locked in for another three seasons and should line up opposite Denzel Ward at cornerback.

  • Ji'Ayir Brown SAF | SF

    49ers' Ji'Ayir Brown: Moves to strong safety in 2025

    Brown had 76 tackles (44 solo), two interceptions and one forced fumble in 17 regular-season starts with the 49ers in 2025.

    Brown's versatility was on full display in 2025 when he was asked to move over to strong safety in Week 6 after teammate Malik Mustapha returned from injury. The 25-year-old Brown wasn't affected by the shift when he finished the regular season with one less combined tackle and one more interception than he did in 2024. Brown will enter the final year of his rookie contract starting at one of San Francisco's safety positions while providing a solid floor for IDP fantasy managers.
