Bryce Young News
Thursday, February 26, 9:56 AM
Carolina Panthers head coach Dave Canales, who is giving up offensive play-calling this year, said that quarterback Bryce Young will "increasingly be able to change plays at the line" when he recognizes mismatches with the opposing defense, according to Kassidy Hill of Panthers.com. "I love the strides we've taken in terms of the operation, how he gets us up there, makes great calls, fixes our protection problems, finding solutions in areas where we've talked about to take advantage of coverages, takes advantage of different fronts for run plays, and just wanting Bryce to continue to grow in the ownership of those things," Canales said. It's the next step in the former first overall pick's development as he heads into his fourth year in the league. The 24-year-old showed improvement in 2025, completing a career-high 63.6% of his passes for 3,011 yards and 23 touchdowns, which were also career-highs. Young will need to take another step forward in 2026 to be thrown into the QB1 conversation in fantasy.

Anthony Richardson Sr. News
Tuesday, March 3, 11:52 AM
The Cleveland Browns could "seriously consider" a trade for Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson Sr. (eye), which would pit Richardson and Shedeur Sanders against each other in a QB competition for the starting job this summer, according to Zac Jackson of The Athletic. The Browns are "open to multiple options at QB," which includes the "open competition" between Sanders and Deshaun Watson (Achilles). Watson hasn't played since October of 2024, though, and the team still thinks Sanders has a lot to learn. Bringing in another signal-caller from outside the organization seems like a foregone conclusion, with Green Bay Packers impending free-agent QB Malik Willis being another option they'll likely explore. Richardson, the former fourth overall pick in 2023, has requested a trade after the Colts have made it clear that Daniel Jones (Achilles) is who they want starting moving forward. Richardson has started just 15 games in his first three years in the NFL and has plenty to prove to another organization to earn a starting role again.
