Titans Agree to Terms With Mitchell Trubisky

Monday, March 9, 9:46 AM

The Tennessee Titans agreed on an undisclosed two-year deal with free-agent quarterback Mitchell Trubisky on Monday, according to Mike Garafolo of the NFL Network. Trubisky will head to Nashville, where he'll be the top backup to young signal-caller Cameron Ward, who is heading into just his second NFL season in 2026. The 31-year-old veteran spent the last two years with the Buffalo Bills as Josh Allen's backup, going 44-for-61 passing for 492 yards, six touchdowns, and no interceptions in 13 appearances (no starts). The former second overall pick by the Chicago Bears in 2017 out of North Carolina has completed just 64.4% of his career pass attempts for 13,028 yards, 78 touchdowns, and 48 interceptions in nine NFL seasons. With Trubisky now in town as QB insurance, the Titans are expected to move on from Will Levis (shoulder).

Sam Howell News

Sam Howell Signs a One-Year Deal with Cowboys

Tuesday, March 10, 7:40 PM

The Dallas Cowboys have signed quarterback Sam Howell to a one-year contract, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.com. Howell's journey around the NFC East continues; the former UNC product has already spent time with the Washington Commanders and Philadelphia Eagles, and he also made two appearances with the Seattle Seahawks in 2024. That 2024 campaign was the last time Howell saw game action, and at this point in his career, he's more of a steady backup option than a potential NFL starter. That explains why he's heading to Dallas, where he'll compete for the No. 2 quarterback job alongside Joe Milton III (and behind Dak Prescott). Howell's 26 total touchdowns in 2023 revealed his encouraging upside, but he also had 21 interceptions that year, pointing to some real turnover concerns. Fantasy managers should leave him on waivers in all leagues (including dynasty formats) as long as Prescott remains healthy.
