Justin Herbert News
Thursday, March 19, 10:41 AM
Thankfully for fantasy managers, Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert's playoff woes don't count. Herbert was named a Pro Bowler for the second time in his career in 2025, but he looked bad again in an ugly playoff loss to the New England Patriots. During the regular season, the 28-year-old completed 66.4% of his passes for 3,727 yards, 26 touchdowns, and 13 interceptions in 16 games to finish as the QB10 in overall fantasy points. He added a career-high 83 rushing attempts for 498 yards and two touchdowns on the ground. The fact that L.A.'s offensive line was so banged up and ineffective led to Herbert taking off and running more than he ever has in his career. It helped him stay in the top-12 overall fantasy QBs. With a healthier offensive line in 2026 and with new offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel leading the offense, Herbert should be in better hands. He might even return to the 4,000-yard passing mark, which he hasn't reached since his third year in the league in 2022. Herbert's dynasty and redraft stock is on the rise, making him at least a low-end QB1 target in drafts later this year.

Anthony Richardson Sr. News
Saturday, March 14, 8:21 AM
The Green Bay Packers are a "team to monitor" regarding Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson Sr., per ESPN's Stephen Holder. Holder reports that no deal is imminent, but that Richardson Sr. is known to be available via trade. The former number four overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft lost his starting role to Daniel Jones (Achilles) heading into the 2025 season, and the Colts recently re-signed Jones to a lucrative new contract. The Packers have Jordan Love firmly in place as their QB1 of both the present and the future. However, Green Bay recently lost former backup quarterback Malik Willis, who signed with the Miami Dolphins in free agency. Richardson Sr. owns a similar dual-threat profile to Willis, so the Packers could be viewing him in a similar mold. Based on the job Green Bay did to rehab Willis after he flamed out with the Tennessee Titans, a trade to the Packers might be the best-case scenario for Richardson Sr.'s long-term outlook.
