Jordan Love News
Friday, August 21, 9:32 PM
Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love handled the first drive of the Packers' 33-13 victory over the Denver Broncos in the second preseason game for both clubs. Love was a solid 5-of-7 passing for 56 yards, engineering a 12-play drive that ended with a touchdown strike over the middle to running back MarShawn Lloyd for 11 yards. Love also completed two passes to Christian Watson, a 19-yard completion to Matthew Golden on a fourth down in Broncos' territory, a short seven-yard completion to Drake Dabney, and theb, the score to Lloyd for Love's final throw of the night. Overall, Love had a sharp drive and looks ready for the 2026 NFL season. With the Packers condensing their pass-catching corps this offseason by letting Romeo Doubs test free agency and trading Dontayvion Wicks to Philadelphia, the hope is that this clearout brings more work for players like Watson, Golden, Tucker Kraft, and Jayden Reed. Love is a high-end QB2 for fantasy this season, as the Packers will no doubt be efficient, but are at the mercy of head coach Matt LaFleur's playcalling when it comes to pass volume.

Carson Beck News
Thursday, August 20, 4:30 PM
Arizona Cardinals rookie quarterback Carson Beck (ribs) is not expected to play in the second preseason game against the Dallas Cowboys. Beck suffered a rib injury during the Hall of Fame game in early August. The injury was deemed not serious, but he will miss his second preseason game this season. Beck showed promise in that game against the Carolina Panthers, completing 15 of 19 passes for 188 yards and a touchdown. With Beck unlikely to be available and starting quarterback Jacoby Brissett sitting with most of the starters, veteran Gardner Minshew will start on Saturday. The third-round pick hopes to return next week in their final preseason game against the Green Bay Packers.
