Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Ashton Dulin (knee) suffered a torn ACL during last year's training camp and has been limited this offseason, but he was seen working out and moving well in an Instagram post this week. This is a great sign for his potential training camp availability later this month. The 2019 undrafted free agent out of Malone University has hauled in just 33 passes for 450 yards and three touchdowns through his first 55 NFL games, but he was named a second-team All-Pro in 2021 for his special teams ability. Dulin is unlikely to see meaningful action as a wideout behind Michael Pittman Jr., Josh Downs, Adonai Mitchell, and Alec Pierce, so he can be ignored in fantasy football.

Free-agent safety Tashaun Gipson Sr. was handed a six-game suspension by the NFL last week, and although the veteran is not expected to appeal the punishment, he is looking to play in 2024. "During this offseason, I took a supplement one time, which I thought to be completely safe and well within any of the NFL's policies," Gipson wrote in a statement. "It was in no way related to performance, training, or gaining an advantage of any kind at any time. It is with great disappointment that I accept this suspension, and I do so knowing that I have never even attempted to cheat the game. I look forward to returning for my 13th NFL season and helping a team compete for a championship." Gipson, who has played in 173 NFL games, may have to wait a while to find a home, as the safety market has been stagnant this offseason.

Tennessee Titans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins is entering the second year of a two-year, $26 million deal that he made look like a bargain after bouncing back in 2023. In the spring, Hopkins removed pictures and affiliations featuring team logos from his social-media accounts, but he was around and joined quarterback Will Levis and other receivers on a trip to work and have fun this offseason. It remains to be seen if the Titans will try to extend Hopkins before the start of the 2024 season. It's not an easy decision for a 32-year-old wideout. If the Titans don't give him an extension, they could lose Hopkins just as he and Levis and this Brian Callahan offense starts to click. The Titans should throw more this year, but Hopkins' age, Levis' inexperience and the addition of Calvin Ridley are all reasons to doubt whether he can have another productive season in 2024.

The Athletic's Vic Tafur writes that it's the Las Vegas Raiders' plan to use more two-tight end sets this year involving rookie first-rounder Brock Bowers and Michael Mayer, who was a second-round selection in 2023. In addition, the Raiders will line up Bowers out wide and behind the quarterback at times to give the defense unique looks. It's not that the Raiders suddenly don't like Mayer now after drafting Bowers in the first round, but they just thought they couldn't pass up on Bowers' explosiveness and even turned down a team trying to trade up for him. While Mayer will still have a role in the offense in his second NFL season, he's going to take a back seat to Bowers in 2024 and will go undrafted in standard 12-team fantasy leagues this fall. Bowers, meanwhile has the potential for a Sam LaPorta-like season in his rookie campaign.

Las Vegas Raiders running back Zamir White stepped up last season and is in great shape heading into the 2024 season, but he will have to prove it to the coaching staff again this year and to new general manager Tom Telesco. The Raiders lost Josh Jacobs in free agency but brought in Alexander Mattison because of his fit to the new offense. The Athletic's Vic Tafur also writes that the Raiders could add another running back if either White or Mattison get off to a slow start in training camp this summer. The 24-year-old White is expected to open the season as Vegas' lead back, with Mattison filling a complementary role ahead of RB3 Ameer Abdullah. As long as he doesn't fall flat in training camp and the preseason, fantasy managers should view White as a low-end RB2/high-end RB3 as he takes on an expanded role with Jacobs out of the picture.

The Athletic's Vic Tafur writes that Las Vegas Raiders defensive end Malcolm Koonce seems to be the obvious first player in line to receive a long-term contract extension from new general manager Tom Telesco. Pass-rusher is a premium position, and the coaching staff seems pretty convinced Koonce is only scratching the surface of his potential. Robert Spillane might be second on the list for an extension given his improvement and how much he loves head coach Antonio Pierce and fellow pass-rusher Maxx Crosby. The 26-year-old Koonce had a breakout season in 2023, recording 43 tackles (32 solo), eight sacks and three forced fumbles in all 17 games for the Raiders. Six of his sacks came after Week 15. If Koonce continues his upward trajectory, no QB will be safe in 2024 when they face the Raiders and their formidable pass rush.

Dynasty | Bo Nix is reportedly leading the quarterback competition in Denver. Dynasty Analysis: There are a lot of teams who can be patient and let their rookies develop this year before throwing them to the wolves but the Broncos likely aren't one of them after dismissing Russell Wilson this off-season. Sean Payton has clearly hitched his wagon to Nix and it would be a shock if he doesn't start on opening day. At this point, he looks like a solid QB2 in dynasty leagues though we could see some rookie ups and downs early.

Dynasty | Broncos running back Javonte Williams is reportedly in a heavy competition as the starting running back for the Broncos. Dynasty Analysis: Williams, Jaleel McLaughlin, Samaje Perine, Audric Estime and undrafted rookie Blake Watson are all vying for time in what looks to be a newly re-shaped offense. Williams is the clear favorite to land the lion's share of carries but that's no sure thing after he mostly disappointed last season. Of all the position battles coming up, this one is of keen interest to dynasty managers. At this point, Williams is a hold in dynasty leagues but a shaky one at best.

Dynasty | Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman has been mentioned as a potential breakout candidate. Dynasty Analysis: We've seen this a few times this off-season but it's also becoming pretty apparent Bateman has at least improved some. His first three seasons have been terribly disappointing as he's posted just 93 catches for 1,167 and four total touchdowns in 35 games played. In other words, there's no place to go but up from here. Bateman's dynasty value is hanging by a thread but he still looks roster worthy at the moment.

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London expressed enthusiasm regarding the team's pass-heavy offense under new coordinator Zac Robinson. "Ball is gonna be in the air," said London during a recent interview. "Getting faster for a quarterback that's seen it all, it's a really cool situation to have because we'd like to dictate what goes on in a stadium on a weekly basis. The faster we can play, the more efficient we can play, hopefully the more points we have." The 22-year-old was drafted No. 8 overall in the 2022 NFL Draft. However, he hasn't lived up to expectations, accumulating 141 grabs for 1,771 yards and only six touchdowns in 33 games. But with Kirk Cousins under center and a new offensive coordinator, fantasy managers are ready to get London on their rosters for the 2024-25 campaign.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk posted a picture of a Washington Commanders' practice session on the social media platform TikTok. The wideout reportedly wants to remain in San Francisco, although he wants to be paid. However, if both sides can't reach an agreement on a new deal, Aiyuk has been vocal about his desire to play in Washington or Pittsburgh. This isn't the first time he has used social media to keep himself in the news. But considering Aiyuk amassed 1,342 receiving yards and seven touchdowns off 75 catches in 2023-24, his fantasy stock is higher than ever. It could increase even more with a move to the Steelers or Commanders, where he would likely be considered the No. 1 wideout on the depth chart.

Seattle Seahawks linebacker Darrell Taylor stands out as a player possibly in line for a contract extension soon because his $3.1 million salary for the 2024 season is not guaranteed, and it's unclear how much the new coaching staff will value him. Taylor has flashed his ability with 21.5 sacks in his three seasons in the league, albeit without showing much consistency in 13 starts while providing shaky run defense. The 27-year-old former second-round pick (48th overall) in 2020 out of Tennessee has 91 tackles (67 solo), 22 tackles for loss, 34 QB hits, three pass breakups, five forced fumbles and one fumble recovery in 49 games for Seattle in his three seasons. He had a career-low 5.5 sacks in 2023, though, so he'll probably need to bounce back under the new coaching staff in 2024 for the Seahawks to consider extending his contract.

Pittsburgh Steelers defensive tackle Cameron Heyward is entering the final year of his current deal, and if he doesn't sign by the organization's self-imposed Sept. 8 deadline, the most-tenured player on the roster will hit free agency next year for the first time in his storied 14-year career. Pittsburgh wants to keep the 35-year-old, but he's coming off an injury-plagued year, and they'd rather address his contract in the offseason. Heyward wants more security and said he wants to play for three more years. He didn't show up for a portion of offseason workouts but returned for the final week of OTAs and minicamp. Heyward isn't optimistic a deal will get done, but he's been in a similar position before eventually signing before the season. He's coming off two groin surgeries over five months and is a shell of his former self as a pass-rusher.

Philadelphia Eagles general manager Howie Roseman began the offseason by essentially placing edge rusher Josh Sweat on the trade block in an apparent effort to reset the position group in terms of age and salary cap. The Eagles traded Haason Reddick to the Jets and restructured Sweat's contract to spread out his cap hit with $10 million guaranteed. Sweat will remain in Philly for an age-27 contract year, but it remains to be seen if he can perform well enough to earn a major contract with another team, or if he proves himself too valuable for the Eagles to let walk. The Eagles drafted Nolan Smith at No. 30 overall in 2023 and added Jalyx Hunt in the third round of this year's NFL draft. Sweat saw a dip in production last year but was still useful for Philly, registering 43 total tackles and 6.5 sacks while appearing in all 17 of the team's regular-season games.

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara has been one of the best at his position in team history, but he could be nearing the end of the line with his deal set up to make it easier to release him after the 2024 season. Kamara is looking for more long-term security, which is why he walked out of the team facility before the final mandatory minicamp practice because he's unhappy with his current deal. His contract ranked below only Christian McCaffrey when he signed it in 2020, but four years later, Kamara isn't anywhere close to CMC. The 28-year-old has surpassed 1,000 scrimmage yards in each of the last seven seasons and remains versatile, but the Saints may be considering moving on as he heads into his age-29 season. His abilities as a pass-catcher have kept him afloat in PPR formats, but even in those leagues, fantasy managers should consider him more of an RB2 moving forward.

A contract situation to watch for the Los Angeles Rams as training camp begins in late July aside from quarterback Matthew Stafford's will be Jones'. He is entering the final year of his rookie deal and has solidified himself as a multi-year starter and leader on a defense that is now without Aaron Donald. General manager Les Snead said in March that the Rams would have Jones play on his final year instead of extending him early. However, with the Rams, that could always change. There is little depth behind Jones, who missed the football part of organized team activities with what head coach Sean McVay said was leg soreness. Jones was physically present for the rest of the offseason work. The 24-year-old finished as the No. 17 linebacker in IDP fantasy formats in 2023 with 75 solo tackles, 4.5 sacks, 14 tackles for loss, six QB hits and six pass breakups in 15 regular-season starts in his third year in the league.

Former University of Oregon cornerback Khyree Jackson, who was drafted by the Minnesota Vikings in April, died in an automobile accident, according to his agent and former high-school coach. It's a terrible tragedy for the 24-year-old, who was just getting set to embark on his NFL career this fall after being taken in the fourth-round by Minnesota. "I'm at a loss for words. My heart goes out to Khyree's family, friends, teammates and coaches," said head coach Kevin O'Connell. Not only did Jackson pass away, but also his former teammates Anthony Lytton Jr. and Isaiah Haze. It's just terrible news all around. RotoBaller extends its condolences to all family, friends, coaches and teammates of Jackson, Lytton and Haze.

Los Angeles Chargers offensive tackle Rashawn Slater became eligible for a contract extension at the end of last season. The Chargers picked up his fifth-year option in May, meaning he is under contract through the 2025 season. Slater has become an elite tackle, and the price for that position is only going up. Lions right tackle Penei Sewell, drafted six spots ahead of Slater in the first round in 2021, signed for $28 million in average annual value earlier this offseason. It will be interested to see if the Bolts wait to see Slater play in the new offense under head coach Jim Harbaugh before they commit to him long-term. The 25-year-old former 13th overall pick in 2021 out of Northwestern will be even more important to LA's offense in 2024 as they look to become more of a physical, run-first unit under Harbaugh and new offensive coordinator Greg Roman.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill is looking for a new deal in the wake of new contracts for players like Justin Jefferson and Amon-Ra St. Brown. However, according to the wideout, he's more concerned about his team capturing a Super Bowl. "It's cool to get paid and all that, but you know, being able to win a Super Bowl and bring something special to the city of Miami, that's something that can live with us forever," said Hill during a recent interview. "I believe that's very monumental for all of us. Create greatness, man." The 30-year-old signed a four-year, $120 million contract extension after being traded by the Kansas City Chiefs in 2022. Without question, Hill is worth every penny, most recently ending the 2023-24 campaign by amassing a career-high 1,799 receiving yards with 119 grabs and 13 touchdowns. He's expected to remain a potent fantasy receiver for at least a few more years, so he'll likely get taken somewhere in the first round in most fantasy drafts heading into the 2024-25 season.

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott (foot) recently suffered a right foot sprain, with a picture circulating showing the signal-caller wearing a walking boot on vacation. However, while speaking with the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, he downplayed the significance of the photo while indicating the boot was worn during his vacation for precautionary reasons, something he's needed to do at times since suffering a right ankle compound fracture-dislocation in 2020. "The last time I went deep sea fishing, my ankle swole up," said Prescott. "I'm great." The 30-year-old is coming off one of his best seasons, finishing the 2023-24 campaign by throwing for 4,516 yards, 36 touchdowns, and nine interceptions. He also completed a career-high 69.5% of his passes. Without question, Prescott's health will be something fantasy managers will monitor in 2024-25. But with the motivation to earn a new contract, another stellar year could be on the horizon. In a separate article by ESPN, Prescott is no longer wearing the boot, which is undoubtedly good news heading into training camp.
