Kyler Murray News
Thursday, August 6, 9:16 AM
Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kyler Murray turned in one of his best practices of camp Wednesday as he tries to pull ahead of J.J. McCarthy in the starting competition. According to Sports Illustrated, Murray hit Justin Jefferson during one-on-one drills, found Jauan Jennings for a deep touchdown in seven-on-seven work, and connected with a wide-open Tai Felton on a scoring throw of roughly 60 yards during team drills. He later gave Jefferson a chance between two defenders in the two-minute period, and Jefferson came down with the ball for the simulated winning touchdown. Murray also flashed his speed on a scramble after using his legs sparingly earlier in camp. He appeared in only five games for Arizona last season, throwing for 962 yards, six touchdowns, and three interceptions while adding 173 yards and a score on the ground. Minnesota has not named a starter, but this was the kind of practice Murray needed to strengthen his case.

Trey Lance News
Saturday, March 14, 12:22 PM
The Los Angeles Chargers have re-signed quarterback Trey Lance to a one-year deal worth up to $6.75 million, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.com. Lance continues to operate in a depth role, as he has made just 16 appearances (six starts) since being drafted third overall by the San Francisco 49ers in 2021. He backed up Justin Herbert in Los Angeles last year, making four appearances and one start. He finished the year 0-1 with a 47.4% completion rate, 226 passing yards, zero touchdowns, and one interception. He also rushed for 85 yards on the ground. Lance isn't a very flashy name, and the $6.75 million maximum value of his deal likely has a much lower base rate with plenty of playing time-based incentives. He's avoidable in all fantasy leagues as long as Herbert remains healthy, and even if the starter misses time, Lance wouldn't be a very appealing streamer.
