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.

Caleb Williams News
Wednesday, March 18, 4:58 PM
Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams had a breakout season during his second year in the NFL. The former No. 1 pick helped lead the Bears to the playoffs while throwing for 3,942 yards, 27 touchdowns, and seven interceptions. He also added 383 rushing yards and three rushing touchdowns. The USC product's 30 total touchdowns and eight total turnovers represent an impressive ratio, reflecting not only his ability to dominate in fantasy football but also in the NFL. Part of Williams' ascension can be credited to the arrival of head coach Ben Johnson, who elevated the Bears' offense as a whole. Chicago was firing on all cylinders in 2025, and that should continue in Johnson's second season (and Williams' third) in 2026. The departure of wide receiver DJ Moore is notable, but it likely won't have a major effect on Williams, given how well Rome Odunze, Luther Burden III, and Colston Loveland are developing. With a strong offensive line and group of pass-catchers at his disposal, Williams will be right back in the mix to repeat his QB5 finish from last year.
