Jacoby Brissett News
Tuesday, March 10, 3:15 PM
If the Arizona Cardinals plan to start veteran quarterback Jacoby Brissett again in 2026, they "have yet to make him aware of those plans," according to Josh Weinfuss of ESPN. The Cardinals have not told Brissett that he will be their starting QB in 2026, according to a source. He is still under contract for this year and is scheduled to make $4.88 million. Arizona has moved on from former first overall pick Kyler Murray (foot), and they signed veteran Gardner Minshew to a one-year deal on Monday, but Brissett is expected to remain under center after impressing in 2025. The 33-year-old became an unlikely QB streamer in fantasy football after taking over the Cardinals offense in Week 6, ultimately finishing with a career-best 3,366 passing yards, 23 touchdowns, and eight interceptions in 14 games (12 starts). New head coach Mike LaFleur will likely make the Cardinals offense more balanced in 2026, though, making it more unlikely that Brissett will have the kind of upside he had in 2025.

Joe Burrow News
Sunday, March 15, 10:36 AM
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow missed nine games in 2025 with a Grade 3 turf toe injury that required in-season surgery. It was the second time in the last three years, and the third time in his career, that he missed significant time due to injury. When healthy, Burrow is among the most gifted quarterbacks in the league, and playing with a supporting cast of Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins will always have him in position to put up huge fantasy numbers, however, his 226 passing yards per game in 2025 marked a career low, and his 2.1 touchdowns per contest were down significantly from his 43-score season the year prior. It bears noting that Burrow's performance after returning from injury more closely resembled his MVP-candidate form, topping 23 fantasy points in five of his final six outings, with one forgettable performance against Baltimore.
