Teddy Bridgewater News
Tuesday, March 10, 3:21 PM
Veteran free-agent quarterback Teddy Bridgewater is signing an undisclosed deal with the Detroit Lions on Tuesday, according to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network. Bridgewater will return to Motown after serving as Jared Goff's backup in 2023 and 2024. The 33-year-old 11-year NFL veteran hasn't started a game since 2022 with the Miami Dolphins and has gone 8-for-15 passing for 62 yards in five appearances over the last three seasons. Bridgewater was the backup to Baker Mayfield with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2025. The former first-round pick by the Minnesota Vikings in 2014 out of Louisville has plenty of experience in the league, but the Lions' offense will have very limited upside if Goff gets injured and Bridgewater is forced into a starting role. He's completed 66.3% of his 2,082 pass attempts in his career since entering the league in 2014.

Ty Simpson News
Friday, June 12, 5:50 AM
The Los Angeles Rams selection of Alabama quarterback Ty Simpson with the 13th pick of the 2026 NFL Draft went down as one of the biggest surprises of Day 1, but now that the dust has settled, Simpson's long-term dynasty appeal has grown more obvious. Since the draft, the Rams have agreed with Matthew Stafford on an extension that appears to keep the reigning MVP in Los Angeles through the 2027 season. With the Rams also trading away a handful of picks to continue bolstering a win-now roster, 2028 could serve as a natural transition season and a chance to begin building a team around Simpson after he's had two years to develop behind the scenes. While he may not have the immediate impact of some of the other rookies in his class, if the Rams believe they have their quarterback of the future, the franchise has a proven record of investing around their guy. The 23-year-old signal-caller is one of the safest bets to hold value over the next two seasons, and at RotoBaller's dynasty QB26, Simpson could turn into one of the smarter long-term investments as a late-first-round pick in superflex rookie drafts.
