Shane Buechele Signed by the Chiefs

Monday, December 22, 2:54 PM

The Kansas City Chiefs have signed fifth-year quarterback Shane Buechele off the Bills' practice squad, pending a physical. With Patrick Mahomes (ACL) and Gardner Minshew (ACL) both being lost to severe knee injuries in back-to-back weeks, the Chiefs were forced to turn to Chris Oladokun, a 2022 7th-round pick out of South Dakota State, in their Week 16 loss to the Titans. With no other quarterback currently rostered, Kansas City adds emergency depth with Buechele, who has never taken a professional snap but spent the first two years of his career with the Chiefs after going undrafted in 2021. With Oladokun primed to make the first start of his career in a Christmas night divisional matchup against the Broncos, none of the Chiefs' offensive weapons should be in consideration for fantasy championships.

Drew Allar News

Drew Allar a Worthy Dynasty Stash Candidate Given Long-Term Starter Upside

Wednesday, June 17, 8:11 AM

Entering his rookie season, Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Drew Allar is buried on his team's depth chart behind veteran signal-callers Aaron Rodgers and Mason Rudolph. However, Allar could be well-positioned for the long term in Pittsburgh, as Rodgers has said he plans to retire following the 2026 season and Rudolph profiles as a career backup. Allar had his senior season at Penn State in 2025 cut short by an ankle injury, but he threw for 3,327 yards and 24 touchdowns while rushing for 302 yards and six scores across 16 games as a junior in 2024. The injury and concerns about his throwing mechanics caused Allar to fall to the third round of the 2026 NFL Draft, but he won't be pressed into immediate service with the Steelers and will be given time to develop. In deeper dynasty formats, Allar profiles as a worthy stash candidate for his potential starting upside in Pittsburgh in 2027 and beyond.
