While the Cleveland Browns haven't made any announcements on their quarterback competition, The Athletic's Zac Jackson writes that 18-year veteran Joe Flacco should be well ahead of rookies Dillon Gabriel and Shedeur Sanders, and he's also probably ahead of Kenny Pickett. Flacco throws the ball better than the others in a practice setting, and his overall experience makes him the clear favorite to win the job. It's possible that Pickett will outplay Flacco in the coming months, though. Flacco and Pickett alternated turns with the No. 1 offense in practice at OTAs on Wednesday, with Gabriel out-repping Sanders in the second OTA practice. Jackson thinks it's almost a certainty that the QB battle is between Flacco and Pickett. Although Flacco had a nice little run with Cleveland at the end of 2023, he'll be a low-end QB2 option in two-QB fantasy leagues if he wins the starting gig over Pickett this year.

New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. said that quarterbacks Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston have been sharing leadership duties this offseason in the team's clubhouse. "I wouldn't say leader of the pack because Jameis and Russ, they both have a really good dynamic to where they both respect each other," Tracy said. "They both allow each other to lead in their own way, whatever it may be. If Jameis wants to say something, Russ is not gonna come and say this is how it is. He'll let Jameis talk and lead his own way." It could make for some awkward situations in 2025 if Wilson struggles at the position, but for now, nobody should be reading too much into it. Wilson, 36, is fully expected to be the starter in Week 1, but if he falters, both Winston and rookie first-rounder Jaxon Dart could make starts by the end of the year. At best, Wilson will be a low-end QB2 in fantasy as he nears the end of his career.
