Tommy DeVito News
Monday, March 23, 1:02 PM
The New England Patriots released veteran quarterback Joshua Dobbs on Monday, pushing Tommy DeVito to the backup role behind starter Drake Maye, according to Mike Reiss of ESPN. The Patriots initially didn't tender an offer to DeVito, but they eventually re-signed him to a two-year deal with a base value of $4.4 million. The deal includes incentives that could increase the value of the deal to $7.4 million. Reiss adds that a No. 3 QB is expected to be added later in the offseason, potentially via the NFL draft in April. DeVito, who went undrafted out of Illinois, made his NFL debut in 2023 with the New York Giants and ended up playing in nine games (six starts), completing 64% of his passes for 1,101 yards, eight touchdowns, and three interceptions. The 27-year-old did not appear in a game at all in 2025 while serving as the No. 3 behind Maye and Dobbs. If DeVito is making starts for the Pats in 2026, it will be bad news for the entire offense.

Quinn Ewers News
Sunday, March 15, 2:33 PM
Miami Dolphins quarterback Quinn Ewers was previously mentioned as a candidate to start Week 1 of the 2026 NFL season, but those plans have changed after the team signed Malik Willis in free agency. The Dolphins underwent sweeping changes this offseason, replacing head coach Mike McDaniel with Jeff Hafley, releasing Tua Tagoaviloa, and signing Willis. The new coaching staff and front office regime -- which has plenty of ties to Green Bay -- signed Willis away from the Packers and will roll him out as their starter in 2026. That returns Ewers to the backup role after his brief stint as a starter during his rookie campaign in 2025. Across three substantial appearances from Week 16 through 18, he completed 66.7% of his passes for 569 yards, three touchdowns, and three interceptions. Miami can feel some relief that it has a former top college prospect as its backup, but we don't anticipate that Ewers would offer much fantasy appeal if he ends up being forced into action during the 2026 season. It also seems unlikely that Ewers would ever completely beat out Willis for the starting job after Miami made a $67.5 million commitment to the latter.
