Jacoby Brissett News
Thursday, July 9, 6:26 PM
Arizona Cardinals veteran quarterback Jacoby Brissett hasn't taken part in organized team workouts this offseason as he works through a contract dispute with the organization, but that hasn't stopped him from working out with some of his teammates in a private setting, according to Tyler Drake of Arizona Sports. Brissett posted on his Instagram recently after a workout with receivers Marvin Harrison Jr. and Simi Fehoko, tight ends Trey McBride and Elijah Higgins, and quarterback Kedon Slovis. Despite the uncertainty about Brissett's contract situation, he's expected to be Arizona's Week 1 starter under center in new head coach Mike LaFleur's offense in early September. The 33-year-old had a career year in 2025 in his 10th year in the league after taking over for the injured Kyler Murray, throwing for 3,366 yards, 23 touchdowns, and eight interceptions in a pass-happy offense. He established great chemistry with McBride and receiver Michael Wilson, but pass-game volume is expected to fall under LaFleur in 2026. And if Brissett struggles, there could be pressure to give rookie Carson Beck a look. Coming off a career year with regression expected, Brissett should go undrafted in single-QB, 12-team fantasy leagues. RotoBaller has Brissett ranked as the QB27 going into the 2026 campaign.

Caleb Williams News
Thursday, June 25, 8:58 AM
Alyssa Barbieri of Bears Wire lists Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams as an offseason winner as he heads into his third year in the NFL. Williams, the first overall pick in 2024 out of USC, had a trying first year in the NFL. But in Year 2 in 2025 in his first season with head coach Ben Johnson calling the plays, Williams improved, throwing for 3,942 yards, 27 touchdowns, and seven interceptions in 17 starts. Barbieri writes that Williams is poised for another jump in his development while working in the same scheme for a second straight year. The third-year signal-caller continued to make plays during offseason workouts and has plenty of talent on offense around him, despite the loss of receiver DJ Moore in the offseason. The biggest improvement last year came in the sack department, as Williams took only 24 sacks after leading the league with 68 as a rookie. Although Williams' completion percentage dropped from 62.5% to 58.1%, his arrow is pointing firmly up in redraft and dynasty/keeper fantasy leagues. RotoBaller has Williams ranked as the No. 7 fantasy QB for 2026.
