Trey Lance Returns to the Chargers on a One-Year Deal

Saturday, March 14, 12:22 PM

The Los Angeles Chargers have re-signed quarterback Trey Lance to a one-year deal worth up to $6.75 million, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.com. Lance continues to operate in a depth role, as he has made just 16 appearances (six starts) since being drafted third overall by the San Francisco 49ers in 2021. He backed up Justin Herbert in Los Angeles last year, making four appearances and one start. He finished the year 0-1 with a 47.4% completion rate, 226 passing yards, zero touchdowns, and one interception. He also rushed for 85 yards on the ground. Lance isn't a very flashy name, and the $6.75 million maximum value of his deal likely has a much lower base rate with plenty of playing time-based incentives. He's avoidable in all fantasy leagues as long as Herbert remains healthy, and even if the starter misses time, Lance wouldn't be a very appealing streamer.

Jalen Milroe Remains a High-Ceiling, Low-Floor Dynasty Hold

Saturday, June 20, 11:13 AM

After being selected in the third round of the 2025 NFL Draft, Seattle Seahawks quarterback Jalen Milroe carried the ball three times as a rookie, fumbling once on his way to four yards while attempting zero pass attempts, and he has fallen to QB42 in RotoBaller's dynasty rankings. Always viewed as a developmental prospect, he was never going to threaten for a starting role in his first season, but with veteran Drew Lock still on the roster and presumed to again serve as Sam Darnold's primary backup after signing a two-year deal in 2025, Milroe is unlikely to see even a path to playing time until 2027. An athletic marvel, Milroe scored 20 rushing touchdowns in his final season at Alabama and ran an unofficial 4.37-second 40-yard dash at his 2025 Pro Day, and with a skill set that has historically translated to fantasy points regardless of on-field results, he remains a hold in all superflex dynasty leagues. While accuracy issues could prevent him from ever making a start in the NFL, his rushing upside would make him an immediate plug-and-play fantasy option if ever provided the opportunity.
