Jordan Love News
Saturday, March 7, 5:55 AM
Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love showed his upside in the Wild-Card playoff loss to the Chicago Bears in his last game of the season, throwing for 323 yards and four touchdowns on 24-for-46 passing. In 15 regular-season starts in 2025 in his fifth year in the league, the 27-year-old completed 66.3% of his passes for 3,381 yards, 23 touchdown passes, and six interceptions. The former first-rounder has had his ups and downs in his three full seasons as Green Bay's starting signal-caller, but it was a good sign to see him drop his interceptions from double digits each of the previous two seasons. Love can be a QB1 for fantasy managers in the right matchups in head coach Matt LaFleur's offense, but he's best drafted as a high-end QB2 going into his sixth season this fall. He finished as the QB16 in overall fantasy points last year, averaging 16.5 fantasy points per game.

Justin Fields News
Tuesday, February 17, 11:13 AM
The Athletic's Zack Rosenblatt believes that the New York Jets could release quarterback Justin Fields this offseason. The Jets are going to land in the range of $70 million to $80 million in salary cap space in 2026 without cutting anyone, and they don't have a ton of options for cap savings. Fields signed a two-year, $40 million deal in free agency ($30 million guaranteed) last year, but he was a disaster in 2025 and was eventually benched in favor of veteran Tyrod Taylor. It's unlikely that a team will want to trade for the 26-year-old. If they outright cut him, they'll incur a $22 million dead-cap hit and only $1 million in savings. If they designate him as a post-June 1, they can spread the cap hit out over two years and save $10 million. Rosenblatt believes the Jets will outright cut Fields since they aren't lacking in cap space. The former 11th overall pick has elite rushing upside, but he just has not improved as a passer. Fields could compete for a starting gig elsewhere, but nothing will be guaranteed going into 2026.
