Jalen Milroe, Drew Lock to Split Preseason Reps Against Raiders

Wednesday, August 6, 8:32 AM

Seattle Seahawks quarterbacks Jalen Milroe and Drew Lock will split the reps in the team's first preseason game against the Las Vegas Raiders on Thursday. Reporters are expecting the two quarterbacks to split half of the game on Thursday as the Seahawks will rest Sam Darnold, along with several other key starters. Offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak is also expected to call several QB runs for Milroe when he's in the game against the Raiders, which makes the rookie an interesting choice for preseason DFS contests. Milroe and Lock are battling in training camp to be the backup to Darnold when the regular season opens. If he were to get on the field in 2025, Milroe would be very interesting from a fantasy perspective thanks to his elite rushing upside.

Will Howard News

Will Howard Likely Headed for QB3 Role When Healthy

Monday, September 1, 11:37 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Will Howard (hand) remains in line to operate as the team's No. 3 quarterback once he's healthy enough to play. For now, Howard will miss the first four games of the regular season after being placed on injured reserve. However, once Pittsburgh activates him, he should replace Skylar Thompson as the third-string quarterback behind veterans Aaron Rodgers and Mason Rudolph. Howard had an impressive senior season at Ohio State as he completed 73 percent of his passes for 4,010 yards, 35 touchdowns, and 10 interceptions while leading the Buckeyes to a national title. Howard didn't get into a preseason game, so Pittsburgh would truly need to have a quarterback emergency for the rookie to play a snap this season. However, plenty of teams have been forced to play or even start their third-string quarterback before, so we can't rule out Howard getting some reps when he's eventually activated in Week 5 or later.
