Dak Prescott News
Saturday, February 28, 4:41 AM
The Dallas Cowboys will restructure quarterback Dak Prescott's contract heading into the 2026 season, according to sources of ESPN's Adam Schefter. Cowboys owner and general manager Jerry Jones intends to be "aggressive in free agency" this offseason. Dallas has already made other moves on the offense by placing a non-exclusive franchise tag on wide receiver George Pickens on Friday and signing running back Javonte Williams to a three-year extension earlier this week. In the 2025 season, Prescott had a career-high 4,552 passing yards and led the league with his 404 completions. Dallas is making a concerted effort to keep Prescott's weapons going into 2026, making the 32-year-old play-caller a viable option for those looking for value in late-round quarterbacks.

Lamar Jackson News
Tuesday, February 24, 6:44 AM
Baltimore Ravens general manager Eric DeCosta told reporters on Tuesday at the NFL scouting combine that he's "confident" the team will get a contract extension done with quarterback Lamar Jackson, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. The Ravens are looking to get something new done with Jackson since his salary cap hit will jump to $74.5 million for 2026 and 2027 after he signed a five-year, $260 million contract extension in April of 2023. The 29-year-old two-time MVP only played in 13 games in 2025 due to injury and finished with a disappointing 2,549 passing yards, 21 touchdowns, and seven interceptions. He also had a career-low 67 rushing attempts for 349 yards and two touchdowns. Jackson will need to bounce back for Baltimore to have a shot at returning to the postseason, and with better health in 2026, he could easily be back in the high-end QB1 tier for fantasy managers.
