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.

Cameron Ward News
Tuesday, March 31, 8:24 AM
Tennessee Titans head coach Robert Saleh said that the mechanical tweaks for quarterback Cameron Ward will be focused on his footwork, as opposed to his throwing motion, according to Turron Davenport of ESPN. Offensive coordinator Brian Daboll also acknowledged that he doesn't want to mess with Ward's throwing mechanics too much, as different QBs have different throwing motions. Unsurprisingly, Ward, the first overall pick last year out of the University of Miami, struggled in his first year in the NFL with the Titans. The 23-year-old completed under 60% of his 540 pass attempts for 3,169 yards, 15 touchdowns, and seven interceptions in 17 starts. He added 39 rushing attempts for 159 yards and two more scores. Although he did injure his right shoulder in the series finale, Ward should be just fine for Week 1 of the 2026 campaign. Ward could be an intriguing QB2 with upside in his sophomore season if his mechanics lead to better accuracy on the field with a new receiving weapon in wideout Wan'Dale Robinson.
