Isaac TeSlaa

23-Year-Old Wide ReceiverWR
2025 Fantasy Outlook
TeSlaa was a surprise third-round pick in April, going 70th overall after putting up just 896 receiving yards and five touchdowns in 25 games at Arkansas over the past two years. He's on the old side for his draft class, having turned 23 in February, but the Lions apparently think his raw athleticism may eventually amount to something. TeSlaa boosted his draft stock considerably at the 2025 Combine, running a 4.43 40 at 6-foot-4, 214, while ranking first among WRs in the shuttle drill (4.05 seconds), fourth in the vertical jump (39.5 inch) and sixth in the broad jump (129 inches). He then scored three touchdowns in the preseason, which seemingly played a role in the Lions trading away incumbent No. 3 receiver Tim Patrick at the end of August. It'll be tough to take routes and targets away from Amon Ra-St. Brown and Jameson Williams, but TeSlaa at least looks on track for the No. 3 gig. Read Past Outlooks

TeSlaa caught two of three targets for 20 yards and a touchdown in Thursday night's 44-30 win over the Cowboys.
ANALYSIS
TeSlaa was slated to operate in a more significant role with Amon-Ra St. Brown expected to sit with an ankle injury, but St. Brown was ultimately able to play, securing six passes for 92 yards in the contest. TeSlaa still was able to provide fantasy managers with a solid performance, reeling in a 12-yard touchdown pass from Jared Goff in the third quarter. The wideout has now caught four of five targets for 55 yards and two scores over the last two weeks.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Year 1 breakout possible
WRDetroit Lions
August 29, 2025
Bucky Brooks of NFL.com includes TeSlaa on his list of non-first-round rookies that could make an impact in 2025.
ANALYSIS
The third-round pick was considered a bit of a surprise selection at No. 70 overall, but all TeSlaa has done so far is validate the Lions' decision. Brooks points out the 6-foot-4 wideout is already a polished route runner, and TeSlaa's 10-146-3 receiving line this preseason was generated at the expense of several defenders left in his wake by his 4.43 speed.
