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.

Justin Herbert News
Sunday, July 19, 9:01 AM
Los Angeles Chargers seventh-year veteran Justin Herbert has become one of the most polarizing quarterbacks in the league in recent years, but for those who have always believed in his talent, the situation he now finds himself in makes him an obvious target in 2026 drafts. 2025 first-round pick Omarion Hampton comes into the year at full health after missing eight games as a rookie, as does an offensive line that played poorly enough through its own injury struggles to earn Herbert a token MVP vote. New offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel brings excitement into the building, and a heavy investment at both fullback and tight end should lead to more big-play opportunities through heavy play-action usage. Unable to crack the top nine since his QB2 finish of 2021, Herbert is well-positioned to rejoin the fantasy elite, and at RotoBaller's QB8, he can still be found in the middle rounds of single-quarterback drafts.
