Summer fantasy football is a call to dream big and draft with freedom. The piece celebrates personalized strategy, argues rules in fantasy should mirror personal judgment, and highlights a handful of players to target or fade. Caleb Williams is pitched as a late-round quarterback gem, Breece Hall is warned to be faded, Tony Pollard offers solid floor as an RB3 insurance, Drake London and Tetairoa McMillan are noted for upside, Tyjae Spears faces volume questions, George Kittle anchors as a mid-to-late TE1, and Jaxon Smith-Njigba plus Jalin Hyatt offer appealing upside on strong offenses.

Along with this, the author emphasizes trust in research paired with instinct, and urges readers to assemble a “dream team” this preseason—leaning into volume, opportunity, and favorable matchups rather than rigid, one-size-fits-all rules. The takeaways are concrete: draft Williams in late rounds, fade Hall, chase London’s ceiling, monitor McMillan’s path, and treat Kittle as a steady TE anchor while balancing Swift-like upside with Hyatt’s breakouts.

Eagles sign 14 players to the practice squad ahead of Week 1, aiming to fortify depth for a Week 1 showdown with the Cowboys.

Charley Hughlett joins the active roster; Willie Lampkin was claimed off waivers; the rest of the squad covers LB, WR, OL, TE, CB, and S, signaling a calculated depth push for a crowded early schedule.

Notable names include Chance Campbell, Elijah Cooks, Kenyon Green, E.J. Jenkins, Brandon Johnson, Patrick Johnson, Terrace Marshall Jr., Kyle McCord, Parry Nickerson, Eli Ricks, and Andre Sam, among others, as potential breakout or practice-squad-to-spot-play options as the season unfolds.

Chance Campbell’s path from Titans sixth-round pick to a Philadelphia Eagles roster-bubble player is a compelling fantasy-footprint case. The Eagles’ LB room is crowded, with Nakobe Dean on PUP and lock-ins like Zack Baun, Jihaad Campbell, Jeremiah Trotter Jr., and Smael Mondon, leaving the former Titan fighting for a role on special teams and situational packages. Preseason opportunities will be the fulcrum of his value, and any stumble by the veterans could briefly open a door for depth-chart snaps and fantasy points in leagues that chase depth players with defined roles.

Campbell’s college arc is notable: Maryland and Ole Miss veteran who led Ole Miss in tackles (110) in 2021, with four forced fumbles and three fumble recoveries, illustrating a playmaking nose for the ball. He also has lacrosse and finance-cleared background, underscoring athleticism and smarts. In pro terms, knee injury sidelined his rookie season; four NFL games and three tackles on defense plus meaningful special-teams reps show why coaches kept him around. In dynasty formats, Campbell is a post-type sleeper—the kind of upside stash that could prosper if depth injuries occur or if the Eagles reshape packages around versatile linebackers.

The Tennessee Titans have bolstered their linebacker corps by signing Raekwon McMillan to their practice squad. This move comes as the team grapples with significant injuries at the position, including losses to Chance Campbell, Jack Gibbens, and Garret Wallow.

McMillan, who has played 70 games in the NFL over eight seasons, previously played for the Miami Dolphins, Las Vegas Raiders, and New England Patriots. His addition could provide much-needed depth for the Titans as they navigate the rest of the season.

The Tennessee Titans are facing a linebacker crisis after Otis Reese IV sustained an ankle injury during their game against the Indianapolis Colts. With several key players already sidelined, including Jerome Baker and Luke Gifford, the team is left with limited options.

Rookies Cedric Gray and James Williams may see increased playing time as the Titans adapt to their depleted roster. The team is hoping for a quick recovery for Reese as they trail the Colts in the second quarter.
