Justin Herbert News
Friday, June 26, 12:58 PM
Across 16 games in 2025, Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert completed 66.4% of his pass attempts for 3,727 yards, 26 touchdowns, and 13 interceptions. The 28-year-old also rushed for a career-high 498 yards and two scores, which helped him finish as the fantasy QB10 on a per-game basis. Entering 2026, Herbert could be in a position to put together his best fantasy season to date. The Chargers have a new play-caller in place in Mike McDaniel, who should help open up the offense. Los Angeles will also have its star tackle duo of Rashawn Slater and Joe Alt back in action after the two combined to play just six games in 2025. Finally, Herbert has a strong core of young playmakers around him in wide receivers Ladd McConkey and Quentin Johnston, tight end Oronde Gadsden II, and running back Omarion Hampton. If the Chargers offense takes a step forward in its first season under McDaniel and Herbert maintains his increased rushing aggression from a season ago, he could be undervalued by current redraft ADP as the ninth quarterback off the board.

Shedeur Sanders News
Wednesday, June 24, 8:28 AM
Across eight games (seven starts) as a rookie in 2025, Cleveland Browns quarterback Shedeur Sanders completed 56.6% of his pass attempts for 1,400 yards, seven touchdowns, and 10 interceptions. The 24-year-old took over as the starter in Week 12 of what was already a lost season for Cleveland and flashed some upside, but largely struggled. Entering 2026, Sanders is competing with Browns veteran Deshaun Watson for the team's QB1 role. While Watson has struggled with both injuries and ineffectiveness during his time in Cleveland, early reports indicate that the veteran may be the favorite to open 2026 ahead of Sanders on the depth chart. While Sanders' short-term fantasy value may be nonexistent, he may still be worth holding onto in dynasty formats. Cleveland overhauled both its offensive line and wide receiver corps over the offseason and currently remains without a clear quarterback of the future. For rebuilding dynasty managers, Sanders could be a worthy buy-low target.
