Carolina Panthers wide receiver Jalen Coker is having a "strong offseason program" and has "arguably been the most consistent offensive performer in front of media during OTAs and minicamp so far," according to Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer. The third-year wideout is making routine plays and "getting open with relative ease." The 24-year-old former undrafted free agent out of Holy Cross has played in only 22 games due to injuries in his first two years in the NFL, but when on the field, he's been a key contributor for quarterback Bryce Young, catching a total of 65 passes on 89 targets for 872 yards (13.4 yards per catch) and five touchdowns. Last year's first-rounder, Tetairoa McMillan, is the Panthers' clear WR1, but Coker is making a strong case to be the WR2, even with Xavier Legette still in town. The 6-foot-3, 213-pounder has the size, strength, leaping ability, and strong hands to excel all over the field. If he can stay on the field all year, Coker has true breakout potential, and he won't cost much on draft day. RotoBaller has him ranked as the No. 50 fantasy WR for 2026.

The Kansas City Chiefs are adding two years to quarterback Patrick Mahomes' (knee) contract on Wednesday, tying him to the franchise through the 2033 season at a value of $504.75 million, making it the first NFL deal valued at over a half-billion dollars, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. The landmark deal gives the 30-year-old signal-caller an average salary of $64 million per year, which seems wild after he tore his ACL and LCL in Week 15 in a loss to the Los Angeles Chargers last year. Mahomes has obviously done a lot for the organization already, though, and he has been taking part in seven-on-seven drills during mandatory minicamp this week as he works towards being ready for Week 1 of the 2026 regular season in a Monday night showdown versus the division-rival Denver Broncos. It's unclear if he'll be a full-go for the start of training camp at the end of July, but barring a setback, we would bet that Mahomes will be ready for Week 1 this fall. For fantasy purposes, though, with a questionable supporting cast at receiver and while coming off a major knee injury, it would be wise for fantasy managers to treat Mahomes as more of a high-end QB2 target than as the high-end QB1 that he's been in years past.

The New England Patriots are unlikely to re-sign veteran wide receiver Stefon Diggs, according to Evan Lazar of the team's official website. "Right now, I don't think that that's something that I think we're exploring, but I would never say no," head coach Mike Vrabel said. Diggs was the team's leading receiver last year and helped the Pats get back to the Super Bowl, catching 85 of his 102 targets for 1,013 yards and four touchdowns in 17 regular-season starts, but New England cut him this offseason for salary cap purposes, then signed Romeo Doubs in free agency and acquired Pro Bowler A.J. Brown from the Philadelphia Eagles on June 1. The four-time Pro Bowler has seven 1,000-yard seasons to his name in 11 NFL seasons, but he remains unsigned in early June. Diggs' 2026 fantasy value will obviously depend on where he ultimately lands, but it won't be back in New England. The Commanders, Chiefs, Ravens, and Falcons appear to be his most likely landing spots as he heads into Year 12 in the league. Diggs is currently ranked as the No. 62 WR for 2026 at RotoBaller while he continues to look for a new squad to play for.

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan (ankle) said he's feeling good now and is hoping to be ready for the start of training camp at the end of July, according to Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer. McMillan was initially tagged with a foot injury and missed some of organized team activities as a precaution, but he took part in the first day of mandatory minicamp on Tuesday despite dealing with some ankle soreness this offseason. It doesn't sound like a very serious issue at all for the 23-year-old, who was named the Offensive Rookie of the Year in 2025 after the Panthers took him eighth overall out of the University of Arizona. McMillan was held out of workouts on Wednesday, likely as a precaution. All signs are pointing to the young pass-catcher being a full-go for Week 1 of the 2026 regular season this fall. As Carolina's clear WR1 for QB Bryce Young, he'll be a popular WR2 target this year with upside for more if he takes the next step in Year 2. In his first 17 NFL starts a year ago, McMillan caught 70 passes for 1,014 yards and seven touchdowns on 122 targets to finish as a top-15 wideout in half-PPR scoring.
