Matthew Stafford News
Tuesday, March 3, 11:02 AM
When asked about quarterback Matthew Stafford's contract status as he enters the final year of his deal in 2026, Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said, "We've had great dialogue... We'll work through all of those things." Stafford signed a two-year, $84 million contract with the Rams in May of last year before proceeding to win 2025 MVP honors in his 17th season in the league. The three-time Pro Bowler just turned 38 years old, though, and he's essentially playing on a year-to-year basis after contemplating retirement this offseason. Still, L.A. can afford to give Stafford a raise after he threw for a league-high 4,707 yards and 46 touchdowns in 17 regular-season games on 597 attempts. Staying healthy for another full season will probably be Stafford's biggest challenge in 2026, but if he's on the field, he should put up big numbers again with an amazing WR duo in Puka Nacua and Davante Adams.

Josh Allen News
Thursday, March 5, 7:59 AM
Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen has finished as the fantasy QB1 and QB2 over the past two seasons, with an NFL MVP mixed in there, while throwing to Khalil Shakir as his top wide receiver. Following Thursday's breaking news that the Bills will acquire DJ Moore from the Bears for a 2026 pick swap, Allen will now share the huddle with his most talented receiver since Stefon Diggs' final season in Buffalo in 2023. While Moore is coming off a down year in Chicago, in which he made only 50 catches for 682 yards and six touchdowns, targets were split almost frustratingly unilaterally between Moore, Rome Odunze, Colston Loveland, and, later in the season, Luther Burden III. In Buffalo, Moore should step in as the undisputed WR1 that the Bills have been in search of for years, prolonging Allen's reign as the QB1 in all dynasty formats.
