Eagles Release Andy Dalton on Friday

Friday, October 9, 3:43 PM

The Philadelphia Eagles released veteran quarterback Andy Dalton from their roster on Friday, sources told Jordan Schultz. In a corresponding move, the Eagles signed running back Carson Steele to their active roster heading into Week 5 in London against the Jacksonville Jaguars, with Saquon Barkley (hamstring) out and Tank Bigsby (abdomen) on Injured Reserve. The 38-year-old Dalton attempted one pass, which was intercepted, in the Week 3 loss to the Chicago Bears when he came in briefly to replace starter Jalen Hurts, who was being checked for a concussion. The writing was on the wall for Dalton's exit from Philadelphia after he was demoted to the third-string QB role behind Tanner McKee before the Week 4 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. It remains to be seen if Dalton is looking to continue his career with another organization in a backup role. If this ends up being the end for the Red Rifle, he will end his career in the NFL with 39,793 passing yards, 254 touchdowns, and 152 interceptions in 16 NFL seasons, mostly with the Cincinnati Bengals.

Daniel Jones Can Help Navigate Bye Weeks

Tuesday, October 13, 5:53 AM

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Daniel Jones isn't typically a regular top option at QB, but he can definitely help if you need to patch your way through injuries or bye weeks in the coming weeks. Jones and the Colts host the Titans this week before two tough road games against the Vikings and Jaguars. After that, though, his schedule gets more favorable with the Cowboys in Week 9, the Dolphins in Week 10, the Texans in Week 11, and the Giants in Week 12. The 29-year-old quarterback has thrown three touchdowns and four interceptions this season, but he does have an average of over 200 passing yards per game and has added a rushing score. If you need a QB replacement in a week when he has a favorable matchup, Jones gets enough volume under coach Shane Steichen to be a viable option from the waiver wire. This week's matchup with the Titans should be a good spot to utilize him if necessary.
