Rams to Put Matthew Stafford on Pitch Count Ahead of 2026 Season?

Sunday, April 5, 9:25 AM

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford could have a limited workload leading up to the 2026 regular season, according to Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com. Stafford missed most of training camp last summer due to a back injury, and the Rams will likely modify the number of throws he makes this upcoming summer to ensure that he stays healthy. Jimmy Garoppolo took most of the QB1 reps when Stafford was sidelined last summer, and the Rams will likely follow a similar plan during training camp this year. Not only does reducing Stafford's workload keep him healthy, but it also increases the reps for Garoppolo, who needs to be ready in case his number is called at any point during the regular season. As long as Stafford stays healthy, he remains a low-end QB1 in fantasy football because of his role in a high-volume passing offense and the tremendous presence of receivers Puka Nacua and Davante Adams.

Cameron Ward Should Throw at Minicamp

Thursday, April 16, 11:56 AM

Tennessee Titans general manager Mike Borgonzi said that it's "trending" toward second-year quarterback Cameron Ward (shoulder) throwing in the team's upcoming minicamp, according to Jim Wyatt of TennesseeTitans.com. Ward ended his lackluster rookie campaign in 2025 with an AC joint sprain in his right (throwing) shoulder in the Week 18 regular-season finale, but he's expected to be fine by the start of training camp and the 2026 regular-season opener in early September. The 23-year-old former first overall pick last year out of the University of Miami completed 59.8% of his passes in his rookie season while throwing for just 3,169 yards, 15 touchdowns, and seven interceptions in 17 starts. Ward led the Titans to a 3-14 record while also carrying the ball 39 times for 159 yards and two touchdowns as a rusher. It's a good time to buy low on him in dynasty leagues, as he could see Year 2 improvement under new offensive coordinator Brian Daboll with new receiver Wan'Dale Robinson in town to help the passing attack. Fantasy managers in redraft leagues should consider Ward a low-end QB2 target with upside.
