Josh Allen Healthy and Armed with New Top Receiver

Saturday, April 18, 8:23 AM

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen continues to be an elite option in fantasy football, and his ceiling might be getting even higher now that he's healthy and has a new weapon at his disposal. Allen underwent surgery to fix a broken bone in his right foot following the 2025 season, but head coach Joe Brady said that the superstar quarterback is fully healthy. It doesn't sound like the surgery will have any limitations on his performance during training camp or the 2026 regular season. Additionally, Allen will benefit from the Bills' acquisition of wide receiver DJ Moore. While Moore is coming off a down year in which he was essentially pushed down to third on the depth chart in Chicago, he should bounce back as the No. 1 receiver in Buffalo. He'll operate ahead of Khalil Shakir, serving as a reliable medium to deep threat for Allen. It should be no surprise that Allen, who ranked as a top-two fantasy quarterback in each of his last six seasons, remains the QB1 in RotoBaller's latest dynasty fantasy football rankings.

Drew Lock Ready to Go if Needed in Divisional Round

Friday, January 16, 5:55 PM

Seattle Seahawks backup quarterback Drew Lock is "ready to go" for the Divisional Round game this Saturday night against the San Francisco 49ers if Sam Darnold (oblique) can't play, according to head coach Mike Macdonald. Darnold popped up on the injury report on Thursday and was limited in practice due to an oblique injury. He is listed as questionable for Saturday's game, but all signs point to Darnold being active this weekend. But for some reason, if Darnold isn't feeling right on Saturday, the Seahawks would roll with Lock and not rookie QB Jalen Milroe. Lock wouldn't be a recommended QB for fantasy playoff lineups if Darnold is inactive. The 29-year-old signal-caller appeared in five games in 2025, going 2-for-3 passing for 15 yards. The Seahawks would most likely lean more on their ground game with running backs Kenneth Walker III and Zach Charbonnet if Lock made the start.
