Dak Prescott News
Wednesday, March 4, 6:59 AM
The Dallas Cowboys restructured quarterback Dak Prescott's contract on Wednesday to help the team get under the 2026 salary cap before the legal tampering period begins on March 9, according to Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. By restructuring the contracts of Prescott, wide receiver CeeDee Lamb, and offensive lineman Tyler Smith, the Cowboys created $47 million in cap room. Dallas can free up more room by restructuring the contracts of Quinnen Williams and Osa Odighizuwa. Signing defensive tackle Kenny Clark to an extension is expected to free up more space. Prescott, 32, will be a clear QB1 target by fantasy managers in drafts this fall after a highly productive 2025 season in which he completed a league-high 404 passes for 4,552 yards, 30 touchdowns, and 10 interceptions in 17 starts. He has one of the best receiver duos in the league in CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens.

Lamar Jackson News
Wednesday, March 11, 7:11 AM
The Baltimore Ravens reworked quarterback Lamar Jackson's contract on Wednesday to create around $40 million in salary cap space for the 2026 season, sources told Adam Schefter of ESPN. It's a similar restructure to what Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen have done for the Kansas City Chiefs and Buffalo Bills, respectively. It's a move to give Baltimore more financial flexibility, with some of the extra space immediately helping the Ravens bring in All-Pro pass-rusher Trey Hendrickson on a four-year deal on Wednesday. The 29-year-old Jackson will head into the 2026 season looking to bounce back after an injury-plagued and disappointing 2025 campaign in which the Ravens didn't qualify for the postseason. The two-time MVP didn't run the ball as much because of his lower-body injuries and finished with 2,549 passing yards, 21 touchdowns, and seven interceptions in 13 starts. With better health, one of the best dual-threat QBs in the game could easily bounce back in 2026.
