Panthers rookie QB Corral likely out for 2022 season
Carolina Panthers rookie quarterback MATT CORRAL suffered a tear of the Lisfranc ligament in his left foot in Friday night’s preseason game against the New England Patriots. The injury has been… More deemed “significant”, and one that will likely cost the third-round pick the upcoming season. Corral was injured in the fourth quarter when he was stepped on awkwardly. Meanwhile, the quarterback competition between BAKER MAYFIELD and SAM DARNOLD continues, with both players taking Friday night’s preseason game off. Less

Mayfield starts for Panthers, Darnold throws touchdown
BAKER MAYFIELD got the start at quarterback for the Carolina Panthers in their preseason opener at Washington, but fellow signal caller SAM DARNOLD held his own. Darnold threw a red zone… More touchdown, putting great touch on the pass in an area that he struggled last season. Head coach Matt Rhule said previously that he won’t make a decision on his starter for the season opener against Cleveland until after this Friday’s preseason game against the New England Patriots.

No major decisions coming soon on Panthers starting QB
Carolina Panthers head coach Matt Rhule is seemingly unaware that fantasy football drafts are just around the corner. Rhule said over the weekend that the team won’t make what he called… More a “major decision” on any position, particularly between quarterbacks BAKER MAYFIELD and SAM DARNOLD, until after the August 19th preseason game at New England. Rhule added that he may still not decide even at that time if one signal caller hasn’t clearly separated from the other. Stay tuned, fantasy owners. Less

Mayfield, Darnold to compete for starting gig
Carolina Panthers GM Scott Fitterer said this week that there will be an “open competition” at quarterback heading into the upcoming season. The Panthers will presumably decide between uninspiring holdover SAM… More DARNOLD and newcomer BAKER MAYFIELD. Holdover P.J. WALKER and rookie MATT CORRAL can also be thrown into the discussion, although neither is expected to be seriously considered. While the Panthers will have to start one of these guys in 2022, your fantasy team will likely have better options. Less

Factoid: Transplant quarterbacks
Six times in the last two years, a quarterback on a new team has finished with top-20 numbers, and it’s a safe bet that we’re going to have a least a couple of those guys again this season. There likely will be eight starting quarterbacks on opening day who finished last season with other teams. more »

The Baker Mayfield era in Cleveland is officially over. Mayfield was finally traded to Carolina yesterday, with Cleveland getting back a fifth-round pick.

Around the NFL: Cleveland Browns
It’s looking more and more likely that Jacoby Brissett will be doing most of the quarterbacking in Cleveland. Maybe all of it. And that should have everyone wary of counting on much from that team’s pass catchers. more »

Around the NFL: Jacoby Brissett
It’s becoming increasingly apparent that Jacoby Brissett is going to start a bunch of games for the Browns this year. All of the bridges between the team and Baker Mayfield have been burned, and Deshaun Watson is facing a lengthy suspension. It will be Brissett under center in a lot of games (gulp). more »

Around the NFL: Baker Mayfield
Carolina remains the most likely landing spot for Baker Mayfield. The Panthers traded up for Matt Corral, but reports indicate they’re continuing to talk to Cleveland about obtaining the former No. 1 overall pick. Talks broke down during the draft when the teams couldn’t agree on how much of Mayfield’s $18.9 million salary would be picked up by the Browns. more »

Darnold the starting quarterback…for now
Carolina Panthers head coach Matt Rhule said this week that SAM DARNOLD would be the team’s starting quarterback if the season started today. Despite the mild endorsement, speculation continues that the… More Panthers could trade for another signal caller (BAKER MAYFIELD?). Carolina also traded up to select rookie quarterback MATT CORRAL in the third round of April’s draft. Fantasy owners likely have better options at the quarterback position than the Panthers. Less

Around the NFL: Browns win
Deshaun Watson has made his choice between the Atlanta Falcons and New Orleans Saints by unexpectedly pivoting to Door No. 3. He's going to Cleveland, and it's almost certainly about the money -- a fully guaranteed $230 million contract. In fantasy terms, it's good for some, not so good for others. more »

Mayfield requests trade, Browns not interested
We have some drama in Cleveland, fantasy owners. Browns quarterback BAKER MAYFIELD has requested a trade after the team tried to acquire fellow quarterback DESHAUN WATSON and then proceeded to say… More that they wanted “an adult” at the quarterback position. While Mayfield may want out of Cleveland, the Browns have reportedly said that the team will not accommodate his trade request. Less

Around the NFL: Cleveland Browns
Baker Mayfield, by all accounts, is done in Cleveland. He posted what felt like a goodbye on social media last night, with the Browns moving to potentially land Deshaun Watson. Even if those attempts fall short, the team seems like it will be moving onto to a new quarterback. more »

Amari Cooper is being traded to Cleveland, but I’m not crazy about the fit. I don’t expect he’ll put up top-20 receiving numbers in that offense. more »
