Andy Dalton News
Wednesday, March 18, 11:46 AM
The Philadelphia Eagles are acquiring veteran quarterback Andy Dalton from the Carolina Panthers on Wednesday in exchange for a seventh-round pick in the 2027 NFL draft, sources told Adam Schefter of ESPN. The Panthers were expected to move on from Dalton this offseason, especially after adding Kenny Pickett as Bryce Young's backup. Now that Philly has the 38-year-old Dalton to back up starter Jalen Hurts, the Eagles could look to trade current third-stringer Tanner McKee. The Red Rifle is as experienced as they come as a backup QB. He was selected by the Cincinnati Bengals in the second round in 2011 out of TCU, and he's started 169 of the 179 games that he's appeared in over his 15 years in the league. In the last three years in Carolina, Dalton completed 64.7% of his passes for 1,643 yards, 10 touchdowns, and seven interceptions in 13 games (seven starts). Dalton will now back up Hurts in 2026 in his 16th year in the league with his sixth different team.

Dak Prescott News
Sunday, May 3, 11:10 AM
After a hamstring injury limited him to just eight games in 2024, Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott bounced back in a big way in 2025. Across 17 games, Prescott completed 67.3% of his pass attempts for 4,552 yards, 30 touchdowns, and 10 interceptions. The veteran signal-caller led the NFL in completions (404) and finished as the overall fantasy QB6. Heading into 2026, Dallas maintains one of the best wide receiver duos in the NFL in CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens, with tight end Jake Ferguson and wideout Ryan Flournoy rounding out a deep group of pass-catchers. The Cowboys also have continuity along an offensive line that showed major improvement from 2024 to 2025. With plenty of question marks on the defensive side of the ball, Dallas will likely need Prescott and the offense to keep the pedal to the metal once again in 2026. In dynasty formats, Prescott remains a viable fantasy QB1 as he enters his age-33 season.
