Christian Hackenberg Lands On Cincy's Practice Squad

The Cincinnati Bengals are signing quarterback Christian Hackenberg to their practice squad, a source said Sunday.

Matt Cassel Wins Lions Backup Quarterback Job

Detroit Lions quarterback Matt Cassel has won the preseason battle to be the team’s backup quarterback, as Jake Rudock was cut during Saturday’s wave of roster cuts.

The Miami Dolphins claimed quarterback Luke Falk on waivers on Sunday. Falk was a sixth-round pick by the Titans this year but didn't make the team's final roster.

Davis Webb Waived By Giants

The New York Giants are waiving quarterback Davis Webb on Sunday, according to a source.

Rookie Kyle Lauletta and Alex Tanney will serve as Eli Manning's backups entering the 2018 season.

Raiders Release Connor Cook, EJ Manuel

The Oakland Raiders released quarterbacks Connor Cook and EJ Manuel after they traded for AJ McCarron.

Brock Osweiler, David Fales Both Make Dolphins 53-Man Roster

Miami Dolphins quarterbacks Brock Osweiler and David Fales have both found a spot on the 53- man roster, but head coach Adam Gase hasn't said which player is the true backup to Ryan Tannehill.

Kevin Hogan Claimed On Waivers, Paxton Lynch Released

The Denver Broncos cut former first-round quarterback Paxton Lynch on Sunday after claiming quarterback Kevin Hogan off waivers from the Redskins.

Ravens Decide To Keep Robert Griffin III

In a surprising roster cut-down day move, the Baltimore Ravens have decided to keep quarterback Robert Griffin III and head into the season with three quarterbacks on their roster.

Le'Raven Clark Gives The Offensive Line Depth

The offensive line of the Indianapolis Colts has been a major weak point in past seasons. This was due to below-average starters, along with poor depth. While Le'Raven Clark has struggled in the past couple of years, he represents a veteran backup along the offensive line. After adding guard Quenton Nelson and others, they won't […]

Philip Rivers (QB, LAC) - 2018 Fantasy Football Draft Value

BALLER MOVE: Target ~100 CURRENT ADP: ~110 ANALYSIS: Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers had his most efficient season in years, posting his best adjusted net yards per attempt since 2013.

Bills Committed To Youth Movement

With the latest roster cuts to the quarterback and wide receiver positions, it seems to be clear on what direction the Buffalo Bills are going this year.

Raiders Trade For Quarterback AJ McCarron

The Oakland Raiders have traded for quarterback AJ McCarron of the Buffalo Bills. McCarron was traded from the Bengals to the Bills in the offseason, but with the Bills drafting Josh Allen, McCarron was on his way out. McCarron will likely be the backup, in what is now a crowded position. EJ Manuel and Connor […]

Kurt Benkert Released By Falcons

The Atlanta Falcons released quarterback Kurt Benkert during their roster cut down on Saturday. Benkert had every opportunity to push for a roster spot as the Falcons third QB. However, Benkert has managed to play himself out of a roster spot this preseason. Benkert's numbers from the four preseason games were 28 completions on 64 […]

Pat Elflein Activated Off Of PUP List

Minnesota Vikings starting center Pat Elflein (ankle, shoulder) was activated off of the PUP list on Saturday morning.

Touchdown Regression Candidates - Quarterback

Throwing a lot of touchdowns? Good! Throwing a lot of touchdowns at a rate that surpasses either your average level or the league average level? Good when it happens, but maybe not so good the next year, when you can come crashing back down to Earth. Not every quarterback is going to throw for Drew […]

Injury Spin - Five Quarterbacks To Target

One of the most important decisions fantasy players must make during a draft is when to go after a quarterback. Going after one early usually doesn’t make that much sense. There isn’t a huge drop off between the top guys like Aaron Rodgers and mid-tier guys listed below, and they come at a much lower […]

Connor Cook Underwhelms In Final Preseason Game

Oakland Raiders quarterback Connor Cook ended the preseason on a low note Thursday versus the Seahawks. Cook ended with only 35 yards and one touchdown from three completions. He didn't see a ton of playing time, simply for the fact that the Raiders other quarterback, EJ Manuel, was playing so well and put up three […]

Buccaneers Not Committing to Jameis Winston

Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston is not guaranteed the starting role upon his return from suspension.

EJ Manuel Shines In Preseason Finale

Oakland Raiders quarterback EJ Manuel posted a fantastic stat line versus the Seahawks Thursday night. He ended with 255 yards and three touchdowns, while only missing four passes.

Lions Backup Quarterback Still A Major Question

Detroit Lions quarterback Jake Rudock started the final preseason game Thursday night against the Cleveland Browns. He finished 14 of 24 for 114 yards and a touchdown.

Mike Glennon Makes Roster As Third QB

Updating a previous report, Arizona Cardinals quarterback Mike Glennon will remain on the 53-man roster as the third quarterback behind Sam Bradford and rookie Josh Rosen, according to sources. Glennon was a potential trade candidate, but the Cardinals would rather have him as insurance behind the injury-prone Bradford and the rookie Rosen. Glennon was a […]

Paxton Lynch On Outside Looking In

Despite playing his best preseason game on Thursday against the Cardinals, Denver Broncos quarterback Paxton Lynch is on the outside looking in as the No. 3 QB behind Chad Kelly and Case Keenum. The former-first round pick is a candidate to be cut, but a team could also elect to trade for him if they […]

Joshua Dobbs Shines In Preseason Finale

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Joshua Dobbs boosted his trade value in the preseason finale against the Panthers on Thursday. NFL Network insider Ian Rapoport reported that Dobbs is one of the quarterbacks that has "generated interest" around the league, and he could be dealt in the next 24 hours.
