Russell Wilson Locked in as Giants' Starter

Wednesday, July 23, 10:10 AM

New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll confirmed again on Wednesday that quarterback Russell Wilson will be the team's starting quarterback. "Russ is our starter," said Daboll. While this has been the vibe for the most part, it's worth the head coach verifying. Wilson currently gives the team their best chance to win games, though it's worth mentioning that backup quarterback Jameis Winston projects as the better option for the pass-catchers and their fantasy output. The 36-year-old is no more than a late-round dart throw at the quarterback position and is likely more suited as a streaming option off waivers at this point in his career.

Courtland Sutton, Broncos Agree to Contract Extension

Monday, July 28, 3:09 PM

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton has agreed to a four-year, $92 million contract extension that will keep him with the team through the 2029 season. Sutton had been slated to become a free agent after the season, but he's staying in place after establishing a rapport with young quarterback Bo Nix in 2024. Sutton, 29, appeared in all of Denver's regular-season games last year and tallied career-high marks in catches (81) and targets (135). He also scored eight touchdowns and racked up 1,000-plus yards (1,081) for the second time in his first seven seasons in the NFL. The former second-round pick out of SMU remains atop the Denver receiver depth chart and should continue to get plenty of looks from Nix in the second year of the signal-caller's career. Sutton will enter the season as RotoBaller's 20th-ranked receiver.
