Geno Smith News
Wednesday, August 5, 9:19 AM
New York Jets quarterback Geno Smith has consistently looked to attack all three levels of the field during training camp, according to Connor Rogers. Rogers noted that Smith has pushed the ball downfield to the wide receivers while giving Omar Cooper Jr. and Isaiah Williams chances underneath. The tight ends have also been involved in the intermediate area. That approach is encouraging for Garrett Wilson and Adonai Mitchell, but it is still only an early look at Frank Reich's offense. Smith is coming off a difficult season with Las Vegas in which he threw for 3,025 yards, 19 touchdowns, and 17 interceptions across 15 starts. RotoBaller currently ranks him as the QB30, which leaves him outside the standard redraft picture. A more aggressive passing game could help Smith outperform that ranking, but for now he remains a deep Superflex option rather than a dependable weekly starter.

Dak Prescott News
Monday, August 3, 11:26 AM
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott will sit out the preseason after head coach Brian Schottenheimer said the team does not plan to play its starters, according to Nick Harris. Prescott has not appeared in an exhibition game since 2019, so this continues Dallas' recent approach with its franchise quarterback. He sat out all three preseason contests last year before starting every regular-season game and completing 404 of 600 passes for 4,552 yards, 30 touchdowns, and 10 interceptions. The decision should leave Joe Milton III and Sam Howell with the preseason quarterback work as they compete for the backup job. Prescott does not need exhibition snaps to secure his role, and Dallas can use the games to evaluate the rest of the depth chart. His absence does not change his fantasy outlook, and he remains locked in as the Cowboys' starter for Week 1.
