Gardner Minshew II News
Tuesday, November 10, 12:20 PM
The Arizona Cardinals placed veteran quarterback Gardner Minshew II (elbow) on Injured Reserve on Tuesday, according to Darren Urban of the team's official website. Minshew has not officially been ruled out for the rest of the 2026 season, but the Cardinals fear that he suffered a torn UCL in his right elbow in Sunday's Week 9 loss to the division-rival Seattle Seahawks. The Cardinals recently traded former starting QB Jacoby Brissett to the Baltimore Ravens, so things are lining up for rookie Carson Beck to make his NFL debut in a starting role in a Week 10 divisional matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. At the very least, the 30-year-old Minshew will miss at least the next four games after being placed on IR. In just two games played for the Cardinals (one start), Minshew went 38-for-53 passing for 354 yards, three touchdowns, and no interceptions. Although he went 21-for-30 on Sunday in Seattle, he threw for only 166 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions. Even if Minshew can somehow return later this season, he would most likely return to a backup role behind Beck as Arizona assesses their future at the position.

Mac Jones News
Tuesday, November 10, 10:15 AM
San Francisco 49ers quarterback Mac Jones took the final three kneel-downs in Sunday's win over the Las Vegas Raiders and has yet to attempt a pass this season. Dianna Russini reported that the Minnesota Vikings checked in on Jones before Tuesday's trade deadline and found San Francisco's asking price too high. Minnesota is set to send a 2027 third-round pick to Las Vegas for Kirk Cousins, according to NFL Network. Brock Purdy has started all eight games this season and thrown 17 touchdown passes heading into Sunday's visit to the Dallas Cowboys. Jones is worth a bench spot in deep Superflex leagues where most starting quarterbacks are already rostered, especially for managers who start Purdy. When Purdy missed time with a toe injury in 2025, Jones threw for 2,151 yards and 13 touchdowns in eight starts. He attempted at least 39 passes in five of those starts and topped 300 yards three times. His quietest start came against the Atlanta Falcons, when he threw for 152 yards without a touchdown on 26 attempts.
