Will Justin Fields be a Top-5 fantasy quarterback in 2023? Fantasy Football Outlook

Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields finished as the QB5 in fantasy football in his first full season starting in 2022. Fields was pegged as a terrible passer.

Tyler Huntley Has Left The Door Open For Josh Johnson

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Tyler Huntley remains the favorite to win the backup job behind Lamar Jackson this summer, but he has left the door open for veteran Josh Johnson.

Ben Cleveland Being Moved Around

Baltimore Ravens offensive guard Ben Cleveland has been the presumed favorite to start at left guard in 2023 to replace Ben Powers.

Baltimore Ravens outside linebacker David Ojabo (Achilles) played just 21 defensive snaps in his rookie season in 2022 after missing most of the year rehabbing a torn Achilles.

Baltimore Ravens running back Justice Hill got a ton of work during various offseason practices with J.K.

Malaesala Aumavae-Laulu In Mix For Starting Guard Spot

Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said rookie offensive lineman Malaesala Aumavae-Laulu is in the mix for the starting left-guard spot after the final day of mandatory minicamp last week.
