Brandon Allen News
Tuesday, April 14, 10:24 AM
The New York Giants announced on Monday that they signed free-agent quarterback Brandon Allen to an undisclosed deal. Allen will head into his seventh NFL season as the QB3 in the Big Apple behind Jaxson Dart and Jameis Winston. The 33-year-old was a former sixth-round selection by the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2016 out of Arkansas. Allen made his NFL debut in 2019 with the Denver Broncos and then spent three years with the Cincinnati Bengals before playing for the San Francisco 49ers in 2024 and the Tennessee Titans in 2025. In his six years in the NFL, Allen has completed 56.7% of his 323 pass attempts for 1,882 yards, 11 touchdowns, and nine interceptions in 19 games played (10 starts). He only appeared in one game for the Titans last year and went 17-for-30 passing for 72 yards, no touchdowns, and a pick. Allen is off the fantasy football radar everywhere.

Joe Burrow News
Thursday, May 7, 1:19 PM
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow, who missed nine games in 2025 after having surgery for turf toe, was reportedly with the team last week for the start of their voluntary offseason workouts and appeared to look pretty happy, according to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network. Rapoport adds that Burrow was quoted recently in Vanity Fair, saying he's "excited to see the initiative of the Bengals" this offseason. Cincy went 6-11 last season (third in the AFC North) and missed the playoffs for the third straight season and the eighth time in the last 10 years. The Bengals are going all-in for the 2026 season after acquiring defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence from the New York Giants and signing linebacker Boye Mafe to a three-year, $60 million contract in free agency. The 29-year-old Burrow appears to be fully healthy as he enters his seventh season in the league, and he'll be a clear high-end QB1 target in fantasy drafts this fall despite his injury history. Burrow threw for a league-best 4,918 yards and 43 touchdowns in 17 starts in 2024, and he's RotoBaller's No.5-ranked fantasy QB for 2026 right now.
