Fantasy Football News & Dynasty Report – June 23, 2026
The fantasy football offseason continues to create opportunities for savvy managers, and Monday’s news cycle brought several important dynasty risers, sleepers, and veteran fallers. From Cam Skattebo’s recovery to Josh Downs’ expanding role, here are the biggest fantasy storylines heading into training camp.
Cam Skattebo Trending Up for 2026
New York Giants running back Cam Skattebo appears to be on track for a healthy return after his rookie-year ankle injury. Skattebo stated that he expects to return to his pre-injury form and participated in offseason work.
The Giants are expected to lean heavily on the running game under their new coaching staff, giving Skattebo legitimate RB2 upside in fantasy leagues. His physical running style and goal-line ability make him one of the more intriguing mid-round running backs entering training camp.
Fantasy Outlook: Rising stock in both redraft and dynasty leagues.
Josh Downs Could Become Indianapolis’ Target Leader
With Michael Pittman Jr. no longer in Indianapolis, Josh Downs may finally see the expanded role fantasy managers have been waiting for.
Reports suggest Downs could move around the formation more frequently instead of remaining exclusively in the slot. His route-running and reliability make him a strong candidate to lead the Colts in targets.
Fantasy Outlook: Sleeper WR3 with upside for significantly more.
Rashid Shaheed Offers Buy-Low Value
After being acquired by Seattle during the 2025 season, Rashid Shaheed’s production dipped following the trade. However, the Seahawks re-signed him and appear willing to give him an opportunity to earn a larger role.
If Shaheed can establish himself behind Jaxon Smith-Njigba, he could become one of the better late-round targets in fantasy drafts.
Fantasy Outlook: Dynasty buy-low candidate.
Aaron Jones Still Has Something Left
Aaron Jones enters his age-32 season with plenty of questions after battling multiple injuries. However, Minnesota may utilize him heavily in passing situations, and his experience could allow him to outperform his current draft position.
His ADP continues to slide, creating potential value for fantasy managers willing to bet on veteran production.
Fantasy Outlook: Late-round value running back.
Kyler Murray Looking for a Career Reboot
Kyler Murray enters a critical season after joining Minnesota and competing for the starting quarterback job. His rushing ability still provides fantasy upside, and if he wins the job, he would have one of the better supporting casts in football.
While the risk remains substantial, Murray’s dual-threat ability gives him intriguing upside.
Fantasy Outlook: High-risk, high-reward QB option.
Isaiah Bond Drawing Attention in Cleveland
Reports from Browns offseason practices indicate Isaiah Bond was one of the most targeted receivers during spring workouts.
Bond’s speed and athleticism stand out, but Cleveland’s crowded receiving room limits his immediate fantasy value. Dynasty managers, however, should continue monitoring his development.
Fantasy Outlook: Dynasty stash candidate.
Veteran Running Backs Continue to Fade
Both Nick Chubb and Najee Harris face uncertain futures.
- Chubb remains unsigned after an ineffective 2025 season.
- Harris continues to recover from an Achilles injury and also remains a free agent.
While both players carry recognizable names, their fantasy value has fallen significantly entering 2026.
Fantasy Outlook: Deep bench or watch-list options only.
Deep Dynasty Names to Monitor
Several players generated offseason buzz that dynasty managers should monitor:
- Tanner Koziol impressed during Jacksonville’s offseason program.
- Pat Bryant could eventually carve out a larger role in Denver.
- Isaac Guerendo faces an uphill battle for touches in San Francisco.
- Jake Tonges may see opportunities if injuries strike the 49ers tight end room.
These players may not have immediate value but are worth tracking as training camp approaches.
