Tyler Shough News
Wednesday, September 30, 9:48 AM
New Orleans Saints quarterback Tyler Shough showed flashes of elite fantasy upside after taking over as starter midway through his 2025 rookie season, and he has rewarded fantasy managers who bought in as a 2026 sleeper. Through three weeks, Shough ranks third in the league with 912 passing yards, while his eight passing touchdowns trail only Brock Purdy and Kirk Cousins, making him the fantasy QB3 to begin the year. Operating Kellen Moore's up-tempo offense, no player has seen more dropbacks or attempted more passes than Shough, and his surrounding cast, currently led by Chris Olave and tight end Juwan Johnson, should only grow stronger with 2026 first-round pick Jordyn Tyson (hamstring) nearing a return from the hamstring injury that landed him on injured reserve to begin the season. Shough is RotoBaller's QB8 ahead of a Monday night tilt with the Falcons, and he is a player who can be trusted as a long-term QB1.

Caleb Williams News
Friday, October 2, 8:58 AM
Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams (hamstring) has been ruled out for Week 4's matchup against the New York Jets. Williams suffered a hamstring strain in Week 2's loss to the Minnesota Vikings and will now miss his second straight game. In two games this season, Williams has completed 36 of 55 passes for 407 yards, with two touchdowns and one interception, and has added 107 rushing yards and two touchdowns on 15 carries. With Williams out, the team has not yet announced who will start in Week 4, though both Tyson Bagent and Case Keenum are healthy. While there is no timeline for Williams' return, their Week 5 game against their division rival, the Green Bay Packers, could be a possible return date.
