Jameis Winston News
Sunday, September 27, 6:34 PM
New York Giants quarterback Jameis Winston completed 14 of 22 passes for 118 yards and added 14 rushing yards in the 12-7 victory over the Tennessee Titans. With rain and wind playing a major role throughout the game, the Giants focused on running the ball and moved to 2-1 on the season. Across two near-full games, the former first-overall pick hasn't produced at the level to be considered fantasy-relevant, due in part to Matt Nagy's conservative offense. The Giants ran the ball on 58% of their offensive snaps, and while the weather could've played a role, they wanted to limit turnovers in a low-scoring affair. He will hope to bounce back next week against the Arizona Cardinals, as he's a low-end QB3 moving forward.

Mac Jones News
Thursday, July 30, 12:23 PM
San Francisco 49ers backup quarterback Mac Jones (undisclosed) is healthy for the start of training camp after dealing with an undisclosed issue during the offseason, according to Vic Tafur and Matt Barrows of The Athletic. Jones started slow in Wednesday's practice before improving throughout the session and finishing 11-for-15 passing. The 27-year-old signal-caller kept the Niners' offense afloat last year with Brock Purdy missing extended time with a turf-toe injury, throwing for 2,151 yards, 13 touchdowns, and six interceptions on 289 pass attempts in 11 games (eight starts) in his first year in the Bay Area. While Jones was not a standout by any means for fantasy football purposes as more of a game manager, he was a real-life savior for head coach Kyle Shanahan's offense, leading to the 49ers rebuffing trade inquiries on Jones in the offseason. That stance could change this summer if a QB-needy team makes the Niners an offer they can't refuse, but for now, Jones is an extremely valuable insurance policy for Purdy under center.
