Mason Rudolph News
Sunday, November 23, 10:56 AM
Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolph will earn the start against the Chicago Bears in Week 12 after Aaron Rodgers (wrist) was ruled out pregame, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com. Rodgers was pushing to play, but the team decided to hold him out. This will be Rudolph's first start of the season, but he also earned significant snaps after Rodgers exited last Sunday. In that game, he completed 12 of 16 pass attempts for 127 yards, one touchdown, and zero interceptions. This week, the veteran will face off against a Bears defense that leads the league in interceptions but has also allowed the eighth-most fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks in 2025. He's a low-end QB2 for fantasy purposes.

Drake Maye News
Wednesday, April 1, 7:28 AM
Drake Maye New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye emerged as a superstar in 2025, leading his team to a Super Bowl appearance and finishing second in the MVP vote. Across 17 games, the 23-year-old completed 72% of his pass attempts for 4,394 yards, 31 touchdowns, and eight interceptions while also rushing for 450 yards and four scores. Maye's dual-threat ability gives him high-end fantasy upside, and his age makes him a clear dynasty asset. There are some questions around Maye's supporting cast in New England, as the team's starting wide receiver trio of Romeo Doubs, Kayshon Boutte, and Mack Hollins projects as a below-average group. Maye also averaged an unsustainably excellent 8.9 yards per pass attempt in 2025, so a moderate regression in passing efficiency without an uptick in passing volume could lower his numbers across the board. Still, Maye has all the makings of a franchise signal-caller and profiles as an elite dynasty quarterback heading into 2026.
