Chiefs Restructure Patrick Mahomes' Contract

Monday, September 18, 6:29 PM

The Kansas City Chiefs restructured quarterback Patrick Mahomes' contract on Monday, giving him $210.6 million between this year and 2026, the most money in NFL history over a four-year span. He will also be guaranteed that money. The Chiefs and Mahomes plan to revisit the agreement again after the 2026 season, according to Chris Cabott, who negotiated the deal on behalf of Mahomes. The 28-year-old superstar QB looked better in a low-scoring win over the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 2 on Sunday, going 29-for-41 with 305 yards, two touchdowns and one interception. He hasn't quite looked like the MVP candidate that he normally is so far, but it certainly helped that he got All-Pro tight end Travis Kelce back after Kelce missed Week 1 with a knee injury.

Daniel Jones To Carry The Load On Offense Thursday

Wednesday, September 20, 7:51 PM

Fresh off of the QB1 performance against the Arizona Cardinals, New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones is now tasked with facing one of the stingiest defenses in football. He'll have to do so without running back Saquon Barkley (ankle). The good news is that teams are abandoning the run quickly against San Francisco through the first two weeks of the season. If that's the case, the Giants' signal caller will be called upon to carry the offense. Still, against another sturdy defense in Dallas in Week 1, Jones' chances to score never came. He's not a starter for fantasy managers in single QB leagues and is a low-end QB2 in Superflex leagues this week.
