Our Take After Week 4
Through 3 games he's WR141 at 0.7 PPR points per game, against 0.6 over 6 games last season (WR204). The role is producing the same fantasy output two years running.
He's WR2 on the depth chart, so his value depends on the players ahead of him.
The next favorable matchups are the Texans in Week 4 (5th against WRs) and the Packers in Week 6 (10th against WRs).

Published June 16, 2026. Kept for reference; the take above replaces it.
The arrow points straight down. Mingo's positional finish has cratered from 76th in 2023 to 124th in 2024 to 194th this past season, when his role evaporated to a 20.7% snap share across just five games. He drew five targets total, an 0.8% team share, and converted them into one catch for 25 yards. His -0.84 EPA per play and 20% success rate weren't small-sample noise so much as confirmation of a 2024 that already bottomed out at a 28.6% success rate.
The context is just as bleak. He sits at the back of a crowded Dallas receiver room with no path to meaningful snaps, and a restructured deal stripping his workout bonus signals how the team values him. He's effectively unrostered league-wide and projects for minimal volume. There is no reason to draft him in any standard format.
