Matthew Stafford News
Friday, June 12, 6:40 AM
Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford put together a career year in 2025, throwing for 4,707 yards and 46 touchdowns across 17 games and winning his first NFL MVP award. Entering 2026, the veteran signal-caller should once again have a strong ecosystem around him in Los Angeles and has a good chance to be the leader of one of the NFL's best offenses. Even still, Stafford is facing likely production regression as he heads into his age-38 season. Stafford's touchdown rate spiked to 7.7% last year, a significant jump from both his 2024 rate (3.9%) and his career mark (4.8%). Because Stafford offers zero upside as a rusher, even a slight regression in his touchdown rate would significantly impact his fantasy production. Additionally, Stafford still faces heightened injury risk given his age and history of back and neck issues. In dynasty formats, managers may want to explore taking advantage of a clear sell-high window on Stafford.

Kyle Trask News
Monday, August 25, 6:11 PM
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers plan to release quarterback Kyle Trask (shoulder), a source told Jeremy Fowler of ESPN. Trask will revert to Injured Reserve due to a shoulder issue and then work out a settlement or release in order to look for a new team. It means that veteran Teddy Bridgewater will open the 2025 season in Tampa as the primary backup behind starter Baker Mayfield, with undrafted free agent Connor Bazelak serving as the QB3. Trask, 27, was a second-round pick (64th overall) in the 2021 NFL draft out of Florida. He never started a game for the Bucs in his three seasons and appeared in only seven games, going just 4-for-11 passing for 28 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions. Trask will now be looking to get healthy and latch on with another organization and compete for a depth role.
