Ravens Expected to Sign Skylar Thompson

Monday, May 4, 11:05 AM

Veteran quarterback Skylar Thompson is expected to sign with the Baltimore Ravens, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Thompson did not appear in an NFL game in 2025, spending most of the year on the Pittsburgh Steelers' Injured Reserve due to a hamstring injury. Across three games (one start) for the Miami Dolphins in 2024, Thompson completed 63.6% of his pass attempts for 187 yards, zero touchdowns, and zero interceptions. Rapoport reports that Baltimore plans to carry five quarterbacks for the time being, meaning that Thompson will join a crowded competition for the QB2 role in Baltimore behind Lamar Jackson. Thompson and fellow veteran Tyler Huntley may be the favorites for the role, with undrafted free agents Diego Pavia and Joe Fagnano adding some competition as well.

Quinn Ewers News

Quinn Ewers Little More Than a Back-of-Roster Dynasty Handcuff

Sunday, June 21, 5:37 AM

A seventh-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, Miami Dolphins quarterback Quinn Ewers was given the chance to start the final three games of his rookie season. While he did not look glaringly out of place running an NFL offense, averaging 189.7 passing yards across those starts while throwing three touchdowns and three interceptions, the new Dolphins regime moved quickly to add former Packer Malik Willis on a three-year, $67.5 million deal that would presumably lock him in as the starter for the duration of Ewer's rookie contract. At RotoBaller's QB49, Ewers is still a roster-worthy handcuff in superflex dynasty leagues, though any fantasy consideration he sees is likely to come in a worst-case, emergency situation with no other fill-in options. Even then, his upside will still be capped by his conservative play style and Miami's lack of receiver talent, making him an easy player to move on from for managers facing a roster crunch.
