Malachi Corley Fantasy Stats

Wide receiver Malachi Corley is set to join the Browns' active roster in a corresponding move that shifted Cedric Tillman (hamstring) to the injured reserve. Corley was signed to the Cleveland practice squad shortly before the regular season. In 2024, Corley was drafted in the third round (65th overall) by the New York Jets but was never able to carve out a prominent role in their offense. As a rookie, Corley caught just three of his six targets for 16 yards. He added 26 yards on two rushing attempts. Fantasy managers in deeper dynasty formats should monitor his status as he could be given opportunities in the Cleveland offense if Tillman were to miss a significant portion of the season. For now, Jerry Jeudy and rookie Isaiah Bond figure to serve as the team's top wide receivers.

Wide receiver Malachi Corley is signing with the Cleveland Browns, according to a report from Adam Schefter. The second-year pro appeared in nine games for the New York Jets as a rookie, mostly as a special teams player, but failed to make the club this year. Corley will join the Browns' practice squad to begin the season, but could work his way onto the active roster at some point this season due the club's lack of depth at the position.

Former New York Jets wide receiver Malachi Corley is signing an undisclosed deal with the Cleveland Browns on Wednesday, sources tell Jordan Schultz of FOX Sports. Corley chose the Browns but had multiple opportunities on the open market. Corley, 23, only made it one season with the New York Jets after they took him in the third round (65th overall) out of Western Kentucky. He played in only nine games (83 offensive snaps) with Gang Green last year and caught just three of his six targets for 16 yards. Corley will now head to the AFC North, where there is plenty of opportunity in the team's receiving room behind Jerry Jeudy and Cedric Tillman. NFL Network's Mike Garafolo reports that Corley will begin on Cleveland's practice squad. For now, he's just a name to monitor for receiver depth in deep fantasy leagues.

The New York Jets are expected to release wide receiver Malachi Corley. Corley was selected in the third round of last year's NFL Draft out of Western Kentucky. However, with a new coaching staff in New York led by Aaron Glenn, Corley was unable to earn a spot on the final roster. In his rookie season, Corley was not given many opportunities as he appeared in only nine games. During this brief stint with the Jets, he caught just three passes and tallied 16 yards. He also carried the ball twice and tallied an additional 26 yards. In the preseason, Corley was also very quiet and did not make a strong case to hold a spot on the roster. As a result, fantasy managers should expect Garrett Wilson to serve as the clear WR1 in New York, with Josh Reynolds and Allen Lazard serving as the No. 2 and No. 3.

ESPN's Rich Cimini reports that New York Jets wide receiver Malachi Corley (undisclosed) won't be a shoo-in for the team's 53-man roster as he's missed critical time with an undisclosed injury during their offensive install. New York selected Corley with the first pick of the third round in 2024's draft, though his rookie season saw him catch just 3-of-6 targets across 83 total offensive snaps. The Jets' corps of pass-catchers is mostly thin behind No. 1 option Garrett Wilson, so Corley could push for significant snaps if he continues to develop. New head coach Aaron Glenn has insinuated he'll run a tight ship, and isn't tied to the 23-year-old, considering he isn't a part of the regime that drafted him. Corley's athletic profile is enticing, but he requires improvement before impacting fantasy lineups in 2025.

New York Jets second-year wide receiver Malachi Corley (undisclosed) has been banged up with an undisclosed injury during voluntary organized team activities. The new coaching staff has a vision for what role Corley can play in the offense, but it will be hard to carry out those plans until he can get back onto the field, according to head coach Aaron Glenn. The 23-year-old was taken in the third round (65th overall) last year out of Western Kentucky, but he had a minimal role in his first year in the NFL, catching three of six targets for just 16 yards in nine games played (one start). There's opportunity for Corley and others to have bigger roles this year behind WR1 Garrett Wilson, but Corley will need to get healthy first in what is expected to be a run-first offense under Glenn. For now, Corley is off the fantasy radar in standard 12-team fantasy leagues.

New York Jets wide receiver Malachi Corley was a third-round selection in the 2024 NFL Draft out of Western Kentucky, and former general manager Joe Douglas notably traded up to select him. However, the 23-year-old appeared in just nine games last season, catching three of his six targets for 16 yards. He notably let go of the football before crossing the plane of the end zone against the Houston Texans in primetime and did not have much of a role in Aaron Rodgers' offense thereafter. According to Nick Faria of Jets X-Factor, Corley could face an uphill battle to earn playing time. "The problem with Corley is that all of his tape comes from college," Faria wrote. "He's still a very raw prospect, and New York's new regime has no loyalty to him as a player. He has to earn every bit of playing time he could receive." Despite the lack of high-end pass-catchers behind Garrett Wilson, it sounds like Corley has not impressed thus far this offseason. He remains off the fantasy football radar in traditionally fantasy leagues until further notice.

New York Jets wide receiver Malachi Corley (coach's decision) is inactive for Week 14 against the Miami Dolphins. He had not been listed on the injury report, so it appears that he's a healthy scratch. This makes sense given that the Jets activated Allen Lazard from injured reserve on Saturday, so there simply wasn't any room for Corley on the gameday roster. The rookie has appeared in eight games this season, catching just three passes for 16 yards and also losing a costly fumble. He can be dropped in all redraft leagues.

New York Jets wide receiver Malachi Corley has been declared inactive ahead of the Week 5 matchup against the Minnesota Vikings. The rookie wideout hasn't seen any action in the passing game since Week 2. The Jets have a Garrett Wilson, Allen Lazard, Mike Williams, and Xavier Gibson, so Corley isn't needed right now. It seems a bit odd that the Jets wouldn't want to involve their third-round rookie in some way. Fantasy managers can continue to ignore Corley in redraft formats, but he's worth stashing in most dynasty formats.

New York Jets wide receiver Malachi Corley could be a healthy scratch against the San Francisco 49ers this week, according to Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic. This would leave the Jets with five active receivers. Rosenblatt notes that Corley, a rookie, would likely need to prove his worth as a returner in order to be active for the season opener. Regardless of whether he dresses or not, Corley is merely a depth piece in New York and can be avoided in all redraft leagues.
