Dak Prescott News
Wednesday, July 29, 12:06 PM
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott opened his 11th training camp with the organization Wednesday, the same day he turned 33, according to Tommy Yarrish. Prescott has spent his entire career in Dallas since the Cowboys selected him 135th overall in the fourth round of the 2016 NFL Draft. He enters the 2026 season after starting all 17 games and completing 404 of 600 passes for 4,552 yards, 30 touchdowns, and 10 interceptions with a 99.5 passer rating in 2025. His passing-yardage total ranked third in the NFL and was the second highest of his career, trailing only the 4,902 yards he recorded in 2019. Prescott also rushed 53 times for 177 yards and two scores last season. The veteran remains Dallas' unquestioned starter and continues to offer fantasy value through his passing volume and touchdown production.

Gardner Minshew II News
Monday, March 9, 2:06 PM
Former Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Gardner Minshew reached an agreement on Monday on a one-year, $8.25 million deal with the Arizona Cardinals, a source told Adam Schefter of ESPN. The Cardinals have released Kyler Murray (foot), but even with the addition of Minshew, the Cardinals intend to keep veteran Jacoby Brissett as their starting QB in 2026. It means that Minshew will be the backup in the desert next season. The 29-year-old gunslinger spent last year in Kansas City, backing up Patrick Mahomes. The forer sixth-round pick by the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2019 out of Washington State appeared in four games (one start) and went 6-for-13 for 37 yards with no touchdowns and one interception. Minshew injured his knee in his lone start late in the 2025 season and didn't play again after Mahomes suffered a season-ending knee injury. A Pro Bowler in 2023 with the Colts, Minshew won't be on the two-QB superflex radar unless Brissett misses time with an injury.
