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.

Mac Jones News
Thursday, June 25, 10:29 AM
San Francisco 49ers backup quarterback Mac Jones (shoulder), who was sidelined with a sore right shoulder during the team's spring program, threw passes during Tuesday's session at Tight End University, which is run by 49ers tight end George Kittle, according to David Lombardi of The San Francisco Standard. Jones kept the Niners' offense afloat last year with Brock Purdy missing extended time due to a foot injury. The 27-year-old former 15th overall pick by the New England Patriots in 2021 out of the University of Alabama completed a career-high 69.6% of his pass attempts for 2,151 yards, 13 touchdowns, and six interceptions in 11 games played (eight starts) in his first year in the Bay Area. All signs point to Jones being a full-go for the start of training camp at the end of July. After a strong 2025 season, teams had interest in trading for Jones, but the Niners put an exorbitant price tag on his head and appear ready to run it back with him as QB insurance for the injury-prone Purdy. Obviously, Jones won't have much fantasy appeal in 2026 unless Purdy misses more time due to injuries.
