Kirk Cousins News
Wednesday, March 11, 12:15 PM
The Atlanta Falcons officially released veteran quarterback Kirk Cousins at the start of the new league year on Wednesday, according to Kevin Seifert of ESPN. The 37-year-old four-time Pro Bowler spent the last two seasons in Atlanta, where he threw for 5,229 yards, 28 touchdowns, and 21 interceptions in 24 games (22 starts). He was benched late in the 2024 campaign in favor of rookie Michael Penix Jr. and entered last season as the clear backup. Cousins ended up starting eight games for the Falcons in 2025 due to Penix's season-ending knee injury. He had a few notable performances, but overall, he looked more like a QB nearing the end of his career. Cousins had 1,721 passing yards, 10 touchdowns, and five picks for the Falcons last year. He'll be an option to reunite with the Minnesota Vikings this offseason, but a starting job isn't going to be guaranteed, no matter where Cousins resurfaces for the 2026 campaign.

Caleb Williams News
Saturday, February 14, 9:59 AM
Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams took massive strides in his second professional season, his first under head coach Ben Johnson, and he is now a borderline top-five quarterback in dynasty startups. The 2024 first overall pick finished as the QB5 in 2025, while seemingly leaving plays out on the field. His 58.1% completion rate didn't even crack the top-50, and his slow starts repeatedly left the Bears fighting from behind late in games. While the possibility exists that Chicago could falter in 2026, unable to rely on miracle finishes, there's also a chance the Bears are just scratching the surface of what Ben Johnson's vaunted offense is capable of. With one more year to shape the team's personnel to his scheme and mold said scheme to William's unnatural athleticism, it's possible QB5 still might be buying low.
