Matthew Stafford News
Tuesday, March 24, 7:48 AM
Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford is aging like fine wine. The 38-year-old made his third career Pro Bowl and won the first MVP award of his career in his 17th year in the league in 2025 after throwing for a league-high 4,707 yards, a league-high 46 touchdowns, and eight interceptions in 17 regular-season starts. He then added a league-high 936 passing yards and a league-high six touchdowns in three postseason games before the Rams fell short to the Seattle Seahawks in the NFC Championship. With one of the best receiving duos in the league in Puka Nacua and Davante Adams coming back in 2026, Stafford should remain in the QB1 picture in all fantasy formats. However, as he nears 40 years old, Stafford will also be one of the bigger injury risks at the position. In dynasty/keeper leagues, you're stoked if you have a strong roster around him, but if you don't, he's an easy sell high candidate who could be playing the last year of his career in 2026.

Geno Smith News
Tuesday, March 10, 10:31 AM
The New York Jets are acquiring veteran quarterback Geno Smith and a 2026 seventh-round draft pick from the Las Vegas Raiders on Tuesday in exchange for a 2026 sixth-round selection, sources told Adam Schefter of ESPN. Going into his 13th year in the NFL, the 35-year-old signal-caller will reunite with the organization that took him 39th overall in the second round of the 2013 NFL draft out of West Virginia. Justin Fields failed miserably as a big free-agent acquisition for the Jets last year, so now they will bring Smith back and have him likely compete with another free-agent veteran addition to the QB room. There has been a lot of smoke about Minnesota Vikings backup QB Carson Wentz as another option. Smith was a Pro Bowler in 2022 and 2023 in Seattle, but he flopped in 2025 with the Raiders, throwing for 3,025 yards, 19 touchdowns, and a league-high 17 picks. If Smith wins the starting QB gig in New York in 2026, he'll be a low-end QB2 in superflex leagues, at best.
