Marquise Goodwin Will Play Against Texans

Thursday, January 11, 6:08 PM

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Marquise Goodwin (knee) returned to a full practice on Thursday and was removed from the final injury report before Saturday's playoff contest against the Houston Texans. Goodwin was held out of the Week 18 regular season finale against the Cincinnati Bengals but will return and could have an expanded role with rookie Cedric Tillman (concussion) already ruled out. Still, fantasy managers playing DFS during wild-card weekend should avoid Goodwin, as Amari Cooper (heel), Elijah Moore and David Bell will operate in three-wide sets alongside tight end David Njoku. It would be a pretty big surprise if Goodwin did much of note for fantasy managers to get excited about this weekend.

Commanders Re-Sign Marcus Mariota to One-Year Deal

Monday, March 9, 1:25 PM

The Washington Commanders re-signed backup quarterback Marcus Mariota to a one-year, $7 million deal on Monday, sources told Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network. Mariota can make up to $11 million with performance-based incentives. In terms of experience and ability, the 32-year-old veteran is one of the top backup QB options in the NFL. Starter Jayden Daniels battled multiple injuries and missed significant time in 2025, leading to Mariota playing in 11 games (eight starts). The former second overall pick by the Tennessee Titans in 2015 out of Oregon completed 61.2% of his passes for 1,695 yards, 10 touchdowns, and seven interceptions. He also had 297 rushing yards and another score on the ground. The Commanders are hoping that Mariota won't see as much of the field in 2026, though, which would mean Daniels has been able to stay healthy in his third NFL campaign.
