Dak Prescott Remains a Dynasty QB1 Heading into 2026

Sunday, May 3, 11:10 AM

After a hamstring injury limited him to just eight games in 2024, Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott bounced back in a big way in 2025. Across 17 games, Prescott completed 67.3% of his pass attempts for 4,552 yards, 30 touchdowns, and 10 interceptions. The veteran signal-caller led the NFL in completions (404) and finished as the overall fantasy QB6. Heading into 2026, Dallas maintains one of the best wide receiver duos in the NFL in CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens, with tight end Jake Ferguson and wideout Ryan Flournoy rounding out a deep group of pass-catchers. The Cowboys also have continuity along an offensive line that showed major improvement from 2024 to 2025. With plenty of question marks on the defensive side of the ball, Dallas will likely need Prescott and the offense to keep the pedal to the metal once again in 2026. In dynasty formats, Prescott remains a viable fantasy QB1 as he enters his age-33 season.

Kenny Pickett News

Kenny Pickett Agrees to One-Year Deal With Panthers

Monday, March 9, 2:28 PM

Free-agent quarterback Kenny Pickett agreed to a one-year deal with the Carolina Panthers on Monday that will be worth up to $7.5 million, including $4 million in guarantees, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter. With Pickett now in the fold as Bryce Young's backup, the Panthers are expected to trade veteran Andy Dalton. The 27-year-old Pickett will be on his fourth different team in the last four seasons. He was the 20th overall pick by the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2022 out of Pittsburgh, but he only lasted two years in the Steel City before being dealt to the Philadelphia Eagles. Pickett spent last year with the Las Vegas Raiders, playing in six games (two starts) while going 28-for-45 passing for 188 yards, one touchdown, and two picks. He has mostly operated as a game manager under center with limited upside in his four NFL seasons, completing only 62.4% of his passes.
