2024: After years of dominating fantasy leagues with Kirk Cousins chucking him the ball, Jefferson finally had to strike out on his own with Sam Darnold as his quarterback. Darnold played well and kept the trains running on time, but Minnesota fell to 233 passing yards per game, the lowest mark since Jefferson joined the team. This, in turn, put a squeeze on his counting stats. Jefferson's 6.1 catches and 90.4 yards per game were both low-water marks since his debut season and his 2.4 yards per route were the worst of his career. Being the living legend that he is, down years don't hit the same for Jefferson. Despite all of this, he ranked as PPR's WR2 overall.
What's changed: The reason Minnesota turned to Darnold in 2025 was that their initial succession plan for Cousins, J.J. McCarthy, missed the year with a knee injury. The Vikings let Darnold walk in the offseason, teeing McCarthy up for 17 starts this year. The move to a complete unknown seems like a risk for Jefferson and the entire offense, but Darnold had been bouncing around the league as a backup for years. Kevin O'Connell worked his magic and got an astounding season from the journeyman. He's a good bet to do something similar with McCarthy.
2025 Outlook: Ja'Marr Chase's triple crown season puts him ahead of Jefferson for the upcoming season. Saquon Barkley's record-setting season should also keep him at the No. 2 spot, but receiver-crazed fantasy drafters have already started taking Jefferson over him. After Chase is off the board, it's all fair game. Jefferson is at least in the conversation for the second-best fantasy asset this year.

Fantasy football WR tiers for 2025: Ranking best fantasy options
With fantasy football mock drafts well underway and actual fantasy drafts around the corner, there's no better time to look into which players to select. And there's no better position to seek out advice than at wide receiver, where the right player can make the difference between winning and losing. USA TODAY Sports has compiled a tiered list of the wide receivers to add to fantasy football teams ahead of the 2025 season, starting from the top, most elite tier and trickling down to top FLEX player options. Here's how this year's wide receivers field is looking: 2025 POSITION RANKINGS: QB | RB | WR | TE | K | D/ST | Overall Fantasy football WR tiers for 2025 Rather than numbering the tiers, this list will divide up wide receivers by the role they could play on a fantasy football team: potential league-winners, good-to-great WR1s, fringe WR1/WR2 options, solid WR2s and top FLEX players. Here's how everything shakes out among the top 35 fantasy wide receivers: When it comes to fantasy wideouts, these two players are in a league of their own. Chase won the receiving triple crown last season with his 127 catches for 1,708 yards and 17 touchdowns. In standard leagues, that was worth a whopping 16 fantasy points per game. In PPR leagues, that number surges to 23.7 fantasy points per game. Chase was putting up the kind of ridiculous fantasy-point numbers on a weekly basis that other elite wideouts only did in their best weeks. For Jefferson, last season cemented his status as a quarterback-proof wide receiver. He had a fifth-straight 1,000-yard season to open his career, tallying 1,533 total, and matched a career high with 10 touchdowns. Regardless of who's throwing the football – Kirk Cousins, Josh Dobbs, Nick Mullens, Sam Darnold and this year, J.J. McCarthy – Jefferson is producing at a consistently high level. The next tier is a group projected to be the top target-getters on their respective teams who have proven a proclivity for production in fantasy football. Nacua is officially the Rams' top wide receiver after Los Angeles released veteran Cooper Kupp earlier in the offseason. Nabers broke out as a rookie last year despite turmoil under center in New York and should benefit from more consistency there this year. St. Brown has had two straight seasons as a first-team All-Pro receiver and had a career-high 12 scores last season. Collins was a Pro Bowler last year and had a second-straight 1,000-yard season despite missing five games. And Lamb is riding a four-year 1,000-yard streak despite missing his starting quarterback for more than half of last season. The next tier of players is a group that might have top wide receiver potential. It includes a couple of second-year receivers looking to fully establish themselves after strong debuts, plus a couple of elite players who will attempt to bounce back after relatively disappointing seasons. Rounding out the group is a handful of players coming off breakout performances who will be trying to prove last year wasn't a flash in the pan. The biggest question marks here are Wilson, who is the only wideout playing with a brand-new quarterback (Justin Fields) in this tier, and London, whose quarterback (Michael Penix Jr.) is in his second year and still looking to prove himself. REPLACE WITH JACOB'S QB TIER LIST QB TIER LIST Many of the players in this tier are No. 2 wide receivers for their respective, pass-happy teams. Others are guys with solid potential who have not had a long enough history of consistent, outstanding production to be considered among those in the fringe-WR1 tier. The two biggest names here are Harrison and McMillan, the former being a popular breakout pick this year and the latter being the top name among rookie standouts. Making up the final tier are players who may have much higher ceilings than a WR3/FLEX designation but also have lower floors thanks to the questions associated with each name. How long will Rice be suspended for his involvement in a high-speed crash and recent guilty plea? How will Ridley fare with a new, rookie quarterback throwing him the football? Will Godwin bounce back from a gruesome ankle injury? How much will Hunter play on offense? Is Jennings going to continue his holdout with the 49ers in hopes of a new contract, and if not, will his production decline with Brandon Aiyuk's return? Is Addison going to eclipse 1,000 yards for the first time while he still competes for targets with Jefferson? How will Meyers deal with a new QB and significantly higher competition for targets? How much will Waddle benefit from a bounce-back from his quarterback in Miami? How will Williams fit into the Lions' new offensive coordinator's scheme, and is he the team's true No. 2 receiver? Is Jeudy going to be as productive without clarity on which of Cleveland's five quarterbacks will be throwing him the ball? All of the above are some of the important questions that will only be answered once the regular season gets underway in a few weeks.

Patriots set to meet old friends, another Deflategate rival in joint practices with Vikings
The training facility, which opened in 2018, is considered among the two or three best in the NFL, along with those in Miami and Las Vegas. It's relatively new, spacious, and a significant reason why the Vikings have finished No. 2 overall in the NFL Players Association survey the last two years, and No. 1 in 2023. Advertisement 'We call it, 'The country club' up there because it's so nice,' Bradbury said. 'They did a great job with it, and it's great for a joint practice setup.' Get Starting Point A guide through the most important stories of the morning, delivered Monday through Friday. Enter Email Sign Up The Patriots have a $50 million training facility set to open in 2026 that will provide the team with a new locker room, meeting room, and weight room facilities. Until then, the Patriots have to spend one last season in Gillette Stadium, with its small, outdated weight room and facilities that The Patriots also will stay this week at the Omni Viking Lakes hotel that is a five-minute walk around a small pond from the facility. Advertisement This week's practices likely will not include an elite one-on-one matchup, as Vikings receiver Justin Jefferson and Patriots cornerback Christian Gonzalez are expected to sit out with hamstring injuries. The headline matchup instead is between quarterbacks Drake Maye and J.J. McCarthy, first-round draft picks in 2024. Stefon Diggs first broke out as a star receiver as a member of the Vikings. Jamie Squire Patriots receiver Stefon Diggs will be back in Minnesota for just the second time since the Vikings traded him before the 2020 season. A fifth-round pick in 2015, Diggs had 365 catches for 4,623 yards and 30 touchdowns in five seasons before being traded to Buffalo and replaced by Jefferson. Diggs also scored a game-winning touchdown with no time remaining to defeat the Saints in a 2018 Divisional Round playoff game, a play dubbed the 'Minnesota Miracle.' 'One of the most famous plays, if not the most famous, in Vikings history,' Bradbury said. The Vikings had the NFL's blitz-happiest defense in 2024 (38.9 percent of pass plays), and it's a scheme that shouldn't catch Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels by surprise. The Vikings' defense is led by Brian Flores, who began his career with the Patriots as a scout in 2004, and spent 15 years with the organization, rising to linebackers coach and de facto defensive coordinator by 2018. Flores is in his third season as Vikings defensive coordinator after three years as the Dolphins' head coach and one year with the Steelers. The Vikings' defense, ranked 28th in points allowed before Flores, has finished 13th and fifth in his two seasons, while leading the NFL in takeaways last year (33). Advertisement 'I've seen some offenses come in there for joint practice with not a lot of game plan, and it's an absolute disaster,' Bradbury said. 'Fortunately, Coach McDaniels and Coach Flores know each other really well, so it'll be a good battle.' Vikings coach Kevin O'Connell was the Patriots' third-round pick in 2008 as a quarterback out of San Diego State. But O'Connell lasted just one year in Foxborough, and was released at the end of training camp in 2009, after losing out to rookie Brian Hoyer as Tom Brady's backup. O'Connell bounced around the league until 2012, got into coaching in 2015, became Sean McVay's offensive coordinator in 2020, and won a Super Bowl the next year. The Vikings hired O'Connell in 2022, and he is 34-17 in three seasons, but 0-2 in the playoffs. O'Connell was named NFL Coach of the Year after leading the Vikings to a 14-3 record with backup quarterback Sam Darnold. Josh Dobbs had a brief, fascinating stint with the Vikings in 2023. Abbie Parr/Associated Press This week's practices will give the Vikings a glimpse of what could have been with Maye. The Vikings coveted him in last year's draft and dangled the Nos. 11 and 23 picks, but weren't willing to blow away the Patriots with a trade offer. One reason the Vikings wanted Maye is his relationship with quarterbacks coach Josh McCown, whose sons were high school teammates and best friends with Maye in Charlotte, N.C. Advertisement Finally, perhaps hiding somewhere in the Vikings' practice facility, far away from the Kraft family and anyone who was with the Patriots a decade ago, will be Vikings assistant general manager Ryan Grigson. He was the Colts' general manager in 2014, when they accused the Patriots of intentionally deflating footballs before their Grigson fueled the two-year Deflategate saga when he sent an email the day before the AFC Championship game to NFL headquarters about rumors of the The NFL set up a sting operation, conducted a sloppy test at halftime, and eventually slammed Brady with a four-game suspension and the Patriots with a forfeited first-round pick.

Chase, Jefferson lead Top 75 fantasy football wide receiver rankings
1 of 5 | Cincinnati Bengals wider receiver Ja'Marr Chase led the NFL in targets, catches, receiving yards and receiving scores in 2024-25. File Photo by John Sommers II/UPI | License Photo MIAMI, Aug. 13 (UPI) -- Reigning triple crown winner Ja'Marr Chase leads my Top-75 fantasy football wide receiver rankings for the 2025 NFL season. Justin Jefferson, CeeDee Lamb, Nico Collins and Malik Nabers are among my other Top 5 options. Puka Nacua, A.J. Brown, Tyreek Hill, Brian Thomas Jr. and Amon-Ra St. Brown are among my other Top 10 pass catchers. I typically lean toward the wide receiver position on draft day, opting to take these players earlier than running backs because of their consistency and confidence in my ability to find breakout running backs in the later rounds. You should prioritize wide receivers who play with great quarterbacks and have a resume consisting of production and health if opting for this strategy. I also look for players who will be target magnets for their respective offenses, especially in the red zone. Continue to monitor injuries, holdouts and depth charts going into the regular season, which will kick off Sept. 4. These rankings will be updated to reflect those circumstances. I split my top wide receiver targets into five tiers: Hall of Fame, All-Pro, Pro Bowl, Just Napping (early to mid-round targets) and Deep Sleepers (mid- to late-round sleepers). My Top 75 positional rankings are below. Hall of Fame 1. Ja'Marr Chase, 2. Justin Jefferson, 3. CeeDee Lamb Chase was the top scoring non-quarterback in fantasy football last season, when he secured an elusive receiving triple crown with a league-best 127 catches for 1,708 yards and 17 scores. He also drew a league-high 175 targets. As long as Joe Burrow is in a Cincinnati Bengals uniform, Chase should continue to compete for triple crowns on an annual basis. I expect a bit more of a balanced Bengals attack this season, including more inclusion for fellow wide receiver Tee Higgins. The Bengals' tight end group also should be more involved, but Chase remains the clear-cut WR1 and is a safe Top 3 pick nearly every format. Chase averaged a touchdown and more than 100 receiving yards per game last season. Look for that consistency to continue for the top target in one of the best offenses in the NFL. While averaging 82.6 yards per game through his first three seasons, Jefferson logged an NFL-record 98.3 yards per game through his first four seasons -- despite playing with a carousel of quarterbacks. Jefferson will enter his 2025 campaign with more questions at the position, with J.J. McCarthy set to be a full-time starter for the first time of his career after he missed his 2024 rookie season due to injury. I trust Jefferson's talent enough to believe he will again overcome McCarthy's likely early struggles. Jefferson also should see a massive target total, especially with No. 2 wide receiver Jordan Addison suspended for the first three games of the 2025 season. I believe there is quite a bit of distance between the production ceiling of Chase and Jefferson and Lamb. But the latter two pass catchers could provide similar value, and you should be happy with either one on your roster. I give Jefferson a slight edge due to his role in the Vikings' offense. The Cowboys also have seven games against teams that ranked inside the Top 10 for fewest fantasy points allowed to wide receivers last season. That brutal schedule includes three matchups within the first five weeks against teams that ranked inside the Top 5 for the fewest points allowed to the position last season. The Cowboys have one matchup all season against a team that ranked inside the Top 5 for the most fantasy points allowed to wide receivers in 2024. Meanwhile, Jefferson and the Vikings have three such matchups within the first nine weeks of the season. Lamb and Jefferson are both dominant enough to overcome tough matchups, but I also expect the Cowboys to have a more balanced passing attack due to the addition of George Pickens and continued use of tight ends, leading to a slight edge for the Vikings pass catcher in my rankings. All-Pro 4. Nico Collins, 5. Malik Nabers, 6. Puka Nacua, 7. A.J. Brown My All-Pro tier includes several players who have the potential to provide the most points at the position on any given week, but also a group that prompts questions. Collins sits at No. 4 in my rankings. The Houston Texans' playmaker was off to a stellar start last season before missing four games due to injury. Collins still finished the year with 68 catches for 1,006 yards and seven scores over 12 appearances. The Texans prioritized adding offensive playmakers through the 2025 NFL Draft, with selections of wide receivers Jayden Higgins and Jaylin Noel. Texans wide receiver Tank Dell is expected to miss extended time this season, if not the entire campaign, which should easily lead to WR1 volume for Collins. Look for between 1,100 and 1,300 yards from Collins. He also has a great shot at finding the end zone 10 times, if he can stay on the field. Collins could be a good value the deeper he slips into the second or third round. Nabers totaled the sixth-most fantasy points among wide receivers during his 2024 rookie campaign. Like Jefferson, Nabers has dealt with inconsistent quarterback play. He will likely get more of that this season, with Russell Wilson and rookie Jaxson Dart leading the New York Giants' quarterbacks room. Nabers is my No. 5 option. I expect at least 1,200 yards from the second-year playmaker, but he could struggle with scoring opportunities. Pro Bowl 8. Tyreek Hill, 9. Brian Thomas Jr., 10. Amon-Ra St. Brown Hill is the most polarizing player in my wide receiver rankings. His average draft position (ADP) is currently in the third or fourth round, depending on your league size. That could be an absolute steal if Hill returns close to his 2022 or 2023 form, when he eclipsed 1,700 yards in consecutive seasons. The Miami Dolphins wide receiver is dealing with an oblique injury, which should be monitored in the weeks leading into the season. He also is coming off a year in which he totaled just 959 yards and six scores. Look for the Dolphins' offense to bounce back in 2025, but I still don't expect Hill to completely return to form. The Dolphins should continue to feed running back De'Von Achane as a runner and pass catcher. They also will look to incorporate tight end Darren Waller and Jaylen Waddle into what could be an elite passing game. Hill still has game-breaking potential and deserves a spot inside the Top 10 of my rankings based on his past production and ceiling, but he could be an inconsistent WR1. Thomas was the No. 4 fantasy football wide receiver last season, when he hauled in 87 of his 133 targets. He should continue to provide Top 10 value in 2025, but could lose some targets to rookie phenom Travis Hunter Jr. I expect Thomas to nearly mirror his rookie production, with at least 1,200 yards and close to 10 scores. He is my No. 9 option and an ideal WR1 if you opt to choose an elite RB1 with your first pick. Just Napping 11. Marvin Harrison Jr., 23. Calvin Ridley, 24. Xavier Worthy, 26. Jameson Williams This group is another collection of pass catchers who are great targets as WR2s and could provide low-end WR1 value if you choose to start your draft with running back selections. Ridley and Worthy are my favorite targets here. Ridley is a great WR2 option and can be slotted in as a low-end WR1 this year if you are in a deeper league. The Tennessee Titans target already formed chemistry with rookie quarterback Cam Ward, the No. 1 overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, and should see a ton of looks this season. The Titans also have a very favorable schedule, with just two games against teams that ranked inside the Top 10 for the fewest fantasy points allowed to wide receivers last season. They don't face any teams that ranked inside the Top 5 for fewest points allowed to the position. Worthy sits right behind Ridley as the No. 24 player in my wide receiver rankings. The Kansas City Chiefs playmaker should be heavily involved to start the season, especially due to the likely suspension of fellow wide receiver Rashee Rice. Like Ridley, he also has a very favorable schedule. That slate includes five games against teams that ranked inside the Top 10 for the most fantasy points allowed to wide receivers last year. He has three matchups against teams that ranked inside the Top 10 for the fewest points allowed to the position. He will not face any teams that ranked inside the Top 5 for the fewest points allowed to wide receivers. Worthy caught just 59 passes for 638 yards, but scored a total of nine times during his rookie campaign. Look for coach Andy Reid to continue to find creative ways to get the ball into Worthy's hands. He could be an inconsistent producer, but I still expect Worthy to provide WR1/WR2 value the majority of the time. Deep Sleepers 30. Matthew Golden, 31. Cooper Kupp, 40. Ricky Pearsall The Green Bay Packers' wide receivers room is a little hard to predict, but I would take a chance on rookie Matthew Golden if you are targeting a WR2/WR3 late in your fantasy draft. His current average draft position is after the eighth round, which could end up being an extremely good value if he turns into the Packers' WR1. Injuries are already impacting the Packers' pass catching group. Jayden Reed is dealing with a foot issue, while Christian Watson is expected to start the season on the physically unable to perform list. Romeo Doubs also was shaken up at a recent practice. The Packers have a very favorable schedule, with six games against teams that ranked inside the Top 10 for the most fantasy points allowed to wide receivers in 2024. They face just three teams that ranked inside the Top 10 for allowing the fewest points to the position, including just one Top-5 unit. If Golden stays healthy, he should have the opportunity to become quarterback Jordan Love's go-to guy. He is my No. 30 option. Pearsall is another player with a potential avenue to WR1 status on his team entering 2025. The San Francisco 49ers pass catcher totaled just 400 yards and three scores on 31 catches during his rookie campaign, which started with a six-game absence as he recovered from being shot last off-season. The 49ers are dealing with major troubles in their wide receivers room, with Jauan Jennings nursing a calf injury and No. 1 target Brandon Aiyuk out until at least Week 6 because of knee issues. Pearsall eclipsed 60 yards and found the end zone in three of his final nine games of the season, but should provide that type of production on a more consistent basis with his expected opportunities in 2025. The 49ers also have one of the best schedules for fantasy football wide receivers, with a league-high seven games against teams that ranked inside the Top 10 for the most points allowed to the position in 2024. They don't have a single matchup against a team that ranked inside the Top 10 for the fewest fantasy points allowed to wide receivers. Pearsall, my No. 40 wide receiver, is my favorite sleeper at the position. Top 75 Fantasy Football Wide Receiver Rankings 1. Ja'Marr Chase, Cincinnati Bengals, Bye Week 10 2.
