Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson found the end zone via the rush for the fourth time in the last four weeks in Week 15, but had another horrendous day throwing the football, completing 50% or less of his passes for the eighth time in the nine full games he's played in 2024 while throwing two […]

Welcome back, RotoBallers! Thursday night's game went pretty according to plan.

Caleb Williams A Solid Superflex/2QB League Option In Week 16

Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams has struggled to be fantasy-relevant throughout this season and faces an uphill battle in Week 16 against the Detroit Lions.

Carolina Panthers head coach Dave Canales said that quarterback Bryce Young will start the final three games of the 2024 regular season. "Bryce is going to finish the season for us," Canales said.

Cincinnati Bengals head coach Zac Taylor said that quarterback Joe Burrow (knee) was officially limited for the third time this week on Friday but he is good to go for Sunday's divisional contest against the Cleveland Browns in Week 16.

Kirk Cousins Unlikely To Return As Backup In 2025

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Kirk Cousins was benched in favor of first-round rookie Michael Penix Jr. this week after throwing nine interceptions in a five-game span in which the team went 1-4.
