Aaron Rodgers News
Thursday, June 11, 8:10 AM
Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers is entering what he himself has said will be the final year of his legendary NFL career in 2026. As he enters his age-43 campaign, Rodgers is clearly not the same player he once was at his peak. Still, he put together a solid year in his first season with the Steelers in 2025. Across 16 games, Rodgers completed 65.7% of his pass attempts for 3,322 yards, 24 touchdowns, and seven interceptions. Entering 2026, the veteran quarterback should have an improved cast of pass-catchers around him following Pittsburgh's offseason trade acquisition of wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. The Steelers also invested in the wide receiver position in the 2026 NFL Draft, using a second-round pick on Germie Bernard and a fourth-round pick on Kaden Wetjen. Fantasy managers should not expect Rodgers to provide top-12 quarterback production. Still, dynasty managers with win-now rosters in two-quarterback league formats may be able to squeeze one last productive season out of Rodgers in 2026.

Tyler Shough News
Sunday, May 31, 11:45 AM
A second-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, New Orleans Saints quarterback Tyler Shough took over as his team's QB1 in Week 9 of his rookie season. After some early struggles, Shough finished strong and closed the year with 2,384 yards, 10 touchdowns, and six interceptions across 11 games (nine starts). He also surprised many with his contributions on the ground, rushing for 186 yards and three scores on 45 attempts. There's reason for optimism heading into Shough's second year, particularly after the Saints boosted his supporting cast over the offseason by drafting wide receiver Jordyn Tyson (hamstrings) in the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft and signing running back Travis Etienne Jr. in free agency. At the same time, Shough is already entering his age-27 season after spending seven years in college. While his rookie season warrants praise, it wasn't dominant enough for him to definitely remain the clear quarterback of the future in New Orleans if he experiences some early struggles in 2026. If dynasty managers can get a massive return for Shough, they may want to consider selling him at what could be the highest point in his value.
