Patrick Mahomes News
Monday, April 20, 6:54 PM
Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes (knee), who is recovering from a torn ACL and LCL in his left knee that he suffered in the Dec. 14 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers, was present for the start of the team's offseason program on Monday, according to Dave Skretta of The Associated Press. "So he goes to the meetings. He can lift, do all that. Rehab. That's the phase he's in right now," head coach Andy Reid said. "We'll just see. Kind of play it by ear. See where he's at. He's doing great, but we've just got to be smart with this thing." The goal continues to be for the two-time MVP to be ready for Week 1 of the 2026 regular season in early September. We'll continue to monitor Mahomes' progress and how much he's able to do on the field as the team's offseason program progresses. The Chiefs now have Justin Fields as QB insurance in case Mahomes isn't ready for Week 1. Mahomes should still be considered a QB1 in fantasy, but coming off his serious knee injury, he might carry the most risk he has ever had going into an NFL season.

Trevor Lawrence News
Sunday, April 5, 12:00 PM
When quarterback Trevor Lawrence was selected first overall by the Jacksonville Jaguars in the 2021 NFL Draft, he was considered by many to be the safest quarterback prospect since Andrew Luck, and yet, through his first four seasons in the league, questions still remained about whether or not he was a true franchise quarterback. In 2025, he took significant strides in his first season with head coach Liam Coen, helping him climb to QB11 in RotoBaller's dynasty rankings. With Brian Thomas Jr. struggling mightily in his second season and Travis Hunter lost to injury, the Jaguars retooled their wide receiver room on the fly, acquiring Jakobi Meyers at the trade deadline, and over the final nine weeks of the season, Lawrence threw 20 touchdowns to only six interceptions. He also finished the year with a career-high 359 rushing yards and nine scores on the ground. The Jaguars enter the 2026 season with Thomas and Meyers still on the roster, along with underrated tight end Brenton Strange, and Parker Washington, whose own late-season surge coincided with Lawrence's. Hunter could spend more time on the defensive side of the ball in year two, but anything he can contribute offensively will only help to elevate an already dynamic group of pass catchers and their quarterback.
