Fantasy Football 2026: Bijan Robinson Locked In, Matthew Golden Eyes Starting Role After Packers Shake Up Roster

In the last few days, fantasy football buzz has centered on offseason moves shaking up depth charts and early 2026 rankings. RotoWire reports the Falcons exercised running back Bijan Robinson's fifth-year option, locking in their star RB as a top fantasy asset through 2026. Meanwhile, Green Bay Packers wide receiver Matthew Golden is primed for a bigger role after the team let Romeo Doubs go in free agency and traded Dontayvion Wicks to the Eagles, per ESPN's Rob Demovsky and Draft Sharks. Golden, a 2025 first-round pick, now eyes a starting spot opposite Christian Watson, boosting his waiver-wire appeal.

NFL Fantasy rankings highlight a quarterback-heavy top tier for Week 1 matchups: Jaxson Dart of the Giants leads at No. 1, followed by Trevor Lawrence, Dak Prescott, Drake Maye, and Jared Goff. RotoWire and Draft Sharks note other shifts, like Colts WR Josh Downs poised for a full-time role post-Michael Pittman's exit, making him a breakout candidate. Jaguars plan a hybrid role for Travis Hunter at cornerback and part-time receiver, easing him back from a knee injury, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

In backfields, Jacksonville's HC Liam Coen praised second-year RB Bhayshul Tuten and seventh-rounder LeQuint Allen for expanded roles, while the 49ers eye Jordan James as top backup RB. Dolphins GM Jon-Eric Sullivan confirmed building around new QB Malik Willis, with De’Von Achane staying central. TheHuddle adds Travis Etienne could lead the Saints' backfield for RB2 value.

These tweaks signal volatility in rankings—watch waivers for Golden, Downs, and Tuten as training camp nears.
