Jake Browning News
Wednesday, March 11, 12:50 PM
Free-agent quarterback Jake Browning plans to sign an undisclosed one-year deal with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, a source told Jeremy Fowler of ESPN. Browning will go from backing up Joe Burrow in Cincinnati to backing up Baker Mayfield in Tampa. The 29-year-old signal-caller from Washington has three years of NFL experience with the Bengals, appearing in 17 games (10 starts). In those games, Browning completed 68.5% of his 368 pass attempts for 2,707 yards, 18 touchdowns, and 15 interceptions. He led the league with a 70.4% completion percentage in his rookie year in 2023, when he was forced to make seven starts with Burrow injured. In Tampa, Browning will serve as a solid backup option for Mayfield, whose aggressive style of play opens him up to plenty of injuries. If Browning is forced into starts for the Bucs in 2026, he definitely won't have the top-notch receiving corps he worked with in Cincy.

Bo Nix News
Friday, May 29, 12:19 PM
Across 17 games in 2025, Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix (ankle) threw for 3,931 yards and 25 touchdowns while rushing for 356 yards and five scores. The 26-year-old's season ended in disappointing fashion when he suffered a broken bone in his ankle in the AFC Divisional Round, but he's expected to be ready to go for the start of 2026. While Nix hasn't been particularly efficient (6.5 yards per pass attempt) to this point in his career, he's averaged nearly 35 pass attempts per game across his two seasons playing for Broncos head coach Sean Payton. In 2026, Nix's high-volume approach could get an efficiency boost from the presence of new star wideout Jaylen Waddle, whom the Broncos acquired from the Miami Dolphins over the offseason. If Nix can take even a small step as a passer while maintaining his solid contributions with his legs, he could be poised for a breakthrough into mid-tier fantasy QB1 territory in 2026 and beyond.
