Behren Morton News
Saturday, April 25, 3:01 PM
The New England Patriots have selected Texas Tech quarterback Behren Morton with the 234th overall pick in the seventh round of the 2026 NFL Draft. A former four-star recruit, he spent five seasons at Texas Tech, starting games early into his career after taking over for an injured Tyler Shough and becoming the full-time starter and a team captain by 2024. Injuries have forced him to miss time throughout his career, but he has produced whenever he's been given the chance, and with time, he could develop into a quality NFL backup. The Patriots recently released veteran backup Joshua Dobbs, leaving Tommy DeVito as the only quarterback on the roster behind Drake Maye. Morton has a chance to stick in Foxboro as an emergency third quarterback who could eventually threaten for primary backup duties.

Jalon Daniels News
Wednesday, October 7, 5:46 AM
In his first NFL start, Tampa Bay Buccaneers undrafted rookie Jalon Daniels completed 19 of 27 passes for 148 yards, with one touchdown and two interceptions, in the 17-14 loss to the Green Bay Packers. He also added 55 rushing yards on eight carries, finishing with 11.4 fantasy points in his first career start. With starter Baker Mayfield (thumb) not practicing ahead of the Week 5 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys on Thursday night, it appears Daniels will be the starter again for the Bucs. He goes from facing a top-12 pass defense in Green Bay to the 31st-ranked defense in Dallas. The Cowboys have also allowed the most rushing yards to quarterbacks this season, including big rushing days by Jaxson Dart (54 yards), Jayden Daniels (69 yards), and Lamar Jackson (50 yards). Daniels should be considered a high-end QB3 in Week 5, with high upside given his running ability.
