Dak Prescott Showing No Signs of Slowing

Thursday, June 11, 5:14 AM

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott has finished as the QB10 or better in six of the seven seasons in which he's played at least 16 games, with his only sub-QB1 season coming in 2018 in the form of a QB14 finish. While he has missed extended time in three of the past six seasons, when healthy, Prescott is one of the most consistent fantasy quarterbacks. Heading into 2026 with what again projects to be one of the league's highest scoring offenses, another top 10 season is very much in the cards, but at RotoBaller's dynasty QB14, Prescott remains criminally underrated. At almost 33 years old, he is closer to the end than the beginning, but with no signs of slowing for anything other than injury, he is a high-ceiling trade target who could still deliver a handful of league-winning seasons.

Lamar Jackson "Absolutely" Wants to Stay With Ravens Long-Term

Wednesday, May 27, 5:37 PM

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson said he "absolutely" wants to stay with the Ravens long-term, according to Giana Han of The Baltimore Banner. Owner Steve Bisciotti said the team wanted to sign the two-time MVP to a contract extension before the start of free agency in March, but general manager Eric DeCosta later said they "ran out of time" and were forced to restructure Jackson's contract instead. Baltimore lowered the 29-year-old's 2026 salary cap hit to $34.39 million by restructuring his contract, but his 2027 cap hit will increase to $84.34 million. Jackson didn't answer whether he wants to bet on himself and play out this season, and was mum on the details of his contract talks with the front office. The former 32nd overall pick back in 2018 out of Louisville is coming off an injury-plagued and disappointing 2025 campaign, but he appears motivated and re-energized while learning new offensive coordinator Declan Doyle's scheme for the upcoming season. As long as he stays on the field, Jackson is an easy QB bounce-back candidate, and he's ranked as RotoBaller's No. 2 QB in single-year fantasy formats.
