Deshaun Watson Takes All First-Team Reps on Friday

Friday, July 31, 2:08 PM

Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson took all of the first-team reps in practice on Friday on Day 3 of training camp, according to ESPN Cleveland. Watson went 18-for-27 passing on the day with no touchdowns and an interception. He also took all the first-team reps on the first day of training camp practice on Wednesday, with second-year signal-caller Shedeur Sanders getting the first-team looks on Thursday. For now, head coach Todd Monken plans to alternate first-team reps every day for Watson and Sanders as they compete for the QB1 job entering the start of the 2026 regular season in September. Watson struggled on Wednesday, at one point throwing back-to-back interceptions in 11-on-11 team drills. There's no clear leader in the competition just yet, but we should get a clearer picture once the pads go on to start next week. Whoever wins the Browns' starting QB gig will probably be on a very short leash and won't be a very exciting QB2 option in superflex fantasy leagues. Monken isn't expected to name a starter until much later in camp.

Jaxson Dart News

Jaxson Dart Poised for a Breakout Campaign in 2026, Strong Target in Both Dynasy and Redraft Formats

Friday, July 24, 5:46 AM

New York Giants 2025 first-round pick Jaxson Dart flashed plenty of fantasy upside in 2025, finishing as the QB14 on the season, throwing for 2,272 yards, 15 touchdowns, five interceptions, and 86 rush attempts for 487 rushing yards and nine touchdowns on the ground. He played in 14 games, and if he continues to be this effective on the ground and takes a step forward in his passing efficiency, he is a clear breakout candidate with the upside to finish top-five at the position. The Giants are expecting Cam Skattebo to start the season after his season was cut short in 2025, and recent news on Malik Nabers (knee) is that he was not placed on the PUP list on Thursday, a great sign he will be back earlier than expected and should only help Dart improve in the passing game. Dart profiles as a strong play in redraft formats and a top option at the position in dynasty formats, given his age (23) and his rushing upside.
