Jalen Milroe Inconsistent in Preseason Week 1

Sunday, August 16, 5:59 AM

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Jalen Milroe took over for Drew Lock on the team's third drive against the Cowboys on Saturday. Milroe went 5/8 for 36 yards. He also added five carries for 36 yards and recovered his own fumble. After Lock led the offense to a touchdown on the opening drive, Milroe was unable to capture that magic. In 2025, fantasy managers were excited for the prospect of Milroe receiving some rushing work in this offense. Instead, he spent much of the season inactive as the team went in a different direction. Milroe looks like he may not be pushing for the backup job this season either. For now, he remains irrelevant in fantasy despite possessing solid upside should he ever receive a chance to start in the NFL.

Brady Cook News

Brady Cook to Start Season Finale

Wednesday, December 31, 2:11 PM

New York Jets undrafted rookie quarterback Brady Cook will make his fourth straight start in a Week 18 divisional matchup with the Bills. Dating back to Week 14, when he took over early for an injured Tyrod Taylor, Cook has completed less than 60% of his passes for 679 yards, while throwing one touchdown to seven interceptions. He has also been sacked a league-leading 18 times in that span, making the Bills DST an obvious unit to target in any leagues still playing for a Week 18 fantasy championship. Even with questions surrounding the availability of Josh Allen (foot) and the rest of the Bills' starters, Buffalo is a seven-point favorite at home in a game that will help to determine seeding in the AFC.
