Who Should I Start? Jake Haener or Jaren Hall

New Orleans Saints quarterback Jake Haener (oblique) reportedly was injured while throwing extra passes after practice on Wednesday. He underwent an MRI which revealed a strain, but luckily Haener avoided an oblique tear. The expectation is that Haener is going to be shut down until the start of training camp. The Saints want to give him time to rest and want to avoid making this a bigger injury than it is. Haener is currently in a three-way competition for the starting quarterback gig with Spencer Rattler and second-round pick Tyler Shough. Honestly, Haener was probably already third on the depth chart, so this injury isn't going to help his chances. However, Haener should get a chance to prove himself in camp.

The Seattle Seahawks waived quarterback Jaren Hall on Tuesday, according to Ari Meirov of the 33rd Team. After the Seahawks selected former Alabama quarterback Jalen Milroe in the third round of the 2025 NFL Draft, Hall became expendable. The BYU product was a fifth-round selection in the 2023 NFL Draft by the Minnesota Vikings and posted 13 competitions on 20 attempts for 168 yards, no touchdowns, and one interception in three career game appearances in his rookie campaign. He signed with Seattle last offseason and spent the majority of the season on the practice squad. Now, Seattle's quarterback room consists of Sam Darnold, Drew Lock, and Milroe. Anyone holding out hope for Hall in deep dynasty leagues can cut him loose.
