Daniel Jones Present at OTA Practice on Wednesday

Wednesday, May 27, 10:47 AM

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Daniel Jones (Achilles) was seen taking part in OTA practice on Wednesday after missing nearly six months with an Achilles tendon tear that he suffered in Week 14 of last year against the Jacksonville Jaguars, according to Stephen Holder of ESPN. Jones reportedly did all individual drills. He will most likely remain limited for the rest of OTAs and probably for minicamp in June, but come training camp this summer, he could be closer to a full-go. Barring a setback, the former first-round signal-caller by the New York Giants out of Duke will have a shot to be ready for the Week 1 regular-season opener in early September. We'll have a better idea of the 29-year-old's availability for the start of the 2026 regular season during training camp, but right now, things are looking good. Jones was in the midst of a career-best season in his first year in Indy before tearing his Achilles, and he finished with 3,101 yards, 19 touchdowns, and eight interceptions in 13 starts for the Colts. But coming off a major Achilles injury, fantasy managers should be skeptical that he can repeat it in 2026. RotoBaller currently has him ranked as the No. 24 QB in single-year formats.

Jake Browning Plans to Sign One-Year Deal With Buccaneers

Wednesday, March 11, 12:50 PM

Free-agent quarterback Jake Browning plans to sign an undisclosed one-year deal with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, a source told Jeremy Fowler of ESPN. Browning will go from backing up Joe Burrow in Cincinnati to backing up Baker Mayfield in Tampa. The 29-year-old signal-caller from Washington has three years of NFL experience with the Bengals, appearing in 17 games (10 starts). In those games, Browning completed 68.5% of his 368 pass attempts for 2,707 yards, 18 touchdowns, and 15 interceptions. He led the league with a 70.4% completion percentage in his rookie year in 2023, when he was forced to make seven starts with Burrow injured. In Tampa, Browning will serve as a solid backup option for Mayfield, whose aggressive style of play opens him up to plenty of injuries. If Browning is forced into starts for the Bucs in 2026, he definitely won't have the top-notch receiving corps he worked with in Cincy.
