Tyler Shough News
Sunday, March 15, 9:00 AM
A second-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, New Orleans Saints quarterback Tyler Shough took over as his team's starter in Week 8 of his rookie campaign. The 26-year-old went 5-4 as a starter and finished the year with 2,384 passing yards, 10 touchdowns, and six interceptions across 11 games played. Shough showed some ability to make plays with his legs as well, collecting 186 rushing yards and three rushing scores on 45 attempts. While Shough's numbers don't necessarily jump off the page, he finished the year on a high note. Over his last four games played, Shough recorded 1,172 passing yards and five touchdowns while throwing just one interception. He's locked in as the Saints QB1 heading into 2026, and could establish himself as the team's long-term answer at the position with a strong sophomore season. Shough profiles as a solid QB2 in superflex formats heading into 2026 and carries some upside in dynasty leagues as well.

Caleb Williams News
Wednesday, March 18, 4:58 PM
Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams had a breakout season during his second year in the NFL. The former No. 1 pick helped lead the Bears to the playoffs while throwing for 3,942 yards, 27 touchdowns, and seven interceptions. He also added 383 rushing yards and three rushing touchdowns. The USC product's 30 total touchdowns and eight total turnovers represent an impressive ratio, reflecting not only his ability to dominate in fantasy football but also in the NFL. Part of Williams' ascension can be credited to the arrival of head coach Ben Johnson, who elevated the Bears' offense as a whole. Chicago was firing on all cylinders in 2025, and that should continue in Johnson's second season (and Williams' third) in 2026. The departure of wide receiver DJ Moore is notable, but it likely won't have a major effect on Williams, given how well Rome Odunze, Luther Burden III, and Colston Loveland are developing. With a strong offensive line and group of pass-catchers at his disposal, Williams will be right back in the mix to repeat his QB5 finish from last year.
