Outlook Malik Washington

Malik Washington Faces Modest Volume in Miami Slot Role

Entering his third NFL campaign completely healthy, Washington is slated as Miami's primary slot receiver alongside outside options Jalen Tolbert and Caleb Douglas. After recording 46 catches and three scores in 2025, he offers situational utility, but he still shares playmaking duties in an offense centered around running back De'Von Achane.

Our projections anticipate around 2.9 catches on 4.1 targets for 21 receiving yards, adding a brief rushing touch to reach 7.4 fantasy points against Las Vegas. With a 20% roster rate and less than 1% of managers starting him, Washington is best viewed as a bench stash or deep-league flex option.

Outlook Denzel Boston

Denzel Boston steps into starting lineup with intriguing rookie upside

The second-round rookie has earned a starting perimeter receiver spot on Cleveland's depth chart alongside veteran Jerry Jeudy and fellow rookie KC Concepcion following an eye-opening training camp. With Deshaun Watson under center and Jamari Thrash sidelined, Boston enters the week healthy and positioned to run meaningful routes right out of the gate.

Despite his promotion to the first-team offense, fantasy managers are taking a wait-and-see approach, with Boston rostered in 39% of leagues but started in just 1%. Our weekly projection pegs him for about 2.6 receptions, 32 receiving yards, and 6.8 fantasy points, making him an intriguing bench stash rather than a recommended starter for lineups.
