Welcome to Big Dill Sports, where we dive into the world of NFL updates and fantasy insights to help you dominate your Daily Fantasy Football leagues. I’m Dillon, your host, and today, we're breaking down the latest buzz from July 25, 2025, as we gear up for the new season.

Yesterday was packed with headline-grabbing news, and let me tell you, it’s going to shake up your fantasy strategies. We’ve got injuries to track, standout performances in training camps, and some key roster moves to explore. So, let's jump right in!

Starting with some injury updates that are crucial for your DFS lineups. Darnell Mooney, Atlanta’s star receiver, will be out for a few weeks with a shoulder injury. That’s a real blow, but it opens opportunities for others like Kyle Pitts and Ray-Ray McCloud. Keep an eye on those cheaper options to fill the gap.

Justin Jefferson is dealing with a mild hamstring strain. He’s set for a re-evaluation next week. If Jefferson isn’t at 100%, it might be wise to explore other high-floor receivers for now.

Now, Justin Fields has a dislocated toe, and while he's day-to-day, it might affect his availability early in the season. If you’re eyeing him for your roster, keep tabs on his participation in practice.

As for the Browns, Quinshon Judkins is currently sidelined with off-field issues, boosting the value of guys like Jerome Ford. And over in Green Bay, Savion Williams missing practice due to a concussion may shake up their depth chart.

Let’s move on to some standout performances from training camps. In Cincinnati, rookie Jermaine Burton is turning heads with impressive red-zone efficiency. And then there's Chase Brown, who’s making waves as a potential lead back—definitely someone to consider adding to your lineups.

The Washington Commanders are showing promise in their evolving offense, thanks to fierce competition among wide receivers. This is definitely worth monitoring for DFS value plays.

And don’t overlook our steady veterans—guys like DeAndre Hopkins and Matthew Stafford are rehabbing and poised to provide stability as the season progresses.

Shifting gears to our rookie sleepers and breakout candidates. Chicago’s Luther Burden III has been showcasing his skills with coach Ben Johnson. If priced right, he could be a fantastic punt play. Meanwhile, Jayden Higgins in Houston and Trey Benson in Arizona are also showing strong potential to be under-the-radar picks.

Now, let’s talk about some impactful roster moves. The Bengals secured Shemar Stewart, which might bolster their offensive stability. Meanwhile, Atlanta’s signing of DJ Chark could provide solid value if Mooney remains sidelined.

And, of course, we’ve got Matthew Stafford progressing well. A healthy Stafford keeps the target ceilings high for guys like Cooper Kupp, making them prime picks for your DFS roster.

Before we wrap up, here's my "big dill" player of the episode—Chase Brown. With his potential lead-back role shaping up, he’s definitely a big deal worth keeping an eye on for your DFS tournament strategies.

As we edge closer to the preseason, remember these key strategies: aim for a balanced roster, keep tabs on injury reports, and be ready to pivot your lineups based on the latest practice updates.

That’s it for today’s rundown on Big Dill Sports. Stay vigilant, play smart, and keep checking in for the latest insights to keep your DFS rosters winning. Until next time, happy drafting!
