Commanders Sign Quarterback Jeff Driskel

Monday, December 22, 12:48 PM

The Washington Commanders are signing quarterback Jeff Driskel off the Arizona Cardinals' practice squad, according to Ben Standig of The Athletic. Driskel served as Washington's QB3 last season and knows how to operate in Kliff Kingsbury's offense. This move adds much-needed depth to an injury-plagued quarterback room in Washington. With Marcus Mariota's (hand) availability unclear and Jayden Daniels being sidelined for the rest of the season, Driskel could be forced to slide into the QB2 role. Washington is playing on a short week and will be facing off against division rival Dallas Cowboys on Christmas Day. On a quick turnaround, Washington likely wanted to bring in someone who has been around their offense to back up Josh Johnson.

Brock Purdy's Supporting Cast Gets an Upgrade for 2026

Wednesday, April 1, 9:11 AM

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy got a new weapon at his disposal this offseason after the team signed veteran wide receiver Mike Evans. While Evans saw his 12-year streak of 1,000-yard seasons come to an end in 2025, he's still a superstar pass-catcher and a clear upgrade over last year's de facto No. 1 receiver, Jauan Jennings. Purdy will now get to throw to a stacked group of players, including Evans, Ricky Pearsall, George Kittle (Achilles), and even Christian McCaffrey. The former seventh-round quarterback ultimately appeared in nine games last year, ranking as the QB24 with 2,167 yards, 20 touchdowns, and 10 interceptions. Extrapolated over a full 17-game season, he would have set a new career-high in touchdowns (38), but also interceptions (19). The 26-year-old will look to clean up the turnovers while remaining an effective passer, especially around the goal line. He has top-10 fantasy upside for 2026 and is still a decent offseason target in dynasty leagues.
