On Tuesday, San Francisco 49ers quarterback Trey Lance told reporters he'd be cleared soon after undergoing two surgeries on his broken ankle. Lance is expected to be a full-go by OTAs. This is good news for the Niners, who are expected to be rid of Jimmy Garoppolo soon and have Brock Purdy out for at least six months.

Trey Lance says he’s 3-4 weeks from being fully cleared for practice. He said he’ll be 100 percent for OTAs

Speaking of 49ers QBs, rookie Brock Purdy is currently awaiting second opinions on his injured UCL - a repair vs. reconstruction surgery will determine the time he will be able to return to football activities. Purdy told reporters on Tuesday that he will make a final decision soon.

more QB news:

  • The Pittsburgh Steelers opened the season with QB Mitch Trubisky before turning to rookie Kenny Pickett in Week Four. It took Pickett a bit to warm up, but he emerged from the 2022 season almost in the postseason and is getting better every week. Tight end Pat Freiermuth agrees. "He was just so much more confident and so much more urgent and knew what he was gonna do. So it took him a little bit to get going, but showed that he's the real deal."
  • Trevor Lawrence will replace Patrick Mahomes on the Pro Bowl roster, as Mahomes has something more important to take care of.
    • Jared Goff will replace Jalen Hurts in the Pro Bowl, as he's also playing in the Super Bowl.
  • If you weren't sure if the Pro Bowl was a joke yet, you will now. Baltimore Ravens backup QB Tyler Huntley is heading to the Pro Bowl in place of Josh Allen. At the time voting closed, Huntley had thrown zero (as in, none) touchdowns on the season.
  • It's not a secret that the Buffalo Bills made Josh Allen put it all out on the field. General Manager Brandon Beane says Allen took too many hits in 2022. "The only thing I'd get on to him is he's got too many bruises on him. And we've got to work on taking less hits. That's the only reason I'm ever going to criticize Josh is just take less hits." Maybe that's something Beane can work on this offseason; just saying.
  • Frank Reich has been through the wringer regarding quarterbacks - it started with Andrew Luck and went downhill. Reich is now with the Carolina Panthers and basically has a blank slate. Reich explained how his time with all different kinds of quarterbacks could help him decide which direction to go with Carolina. "I've had to work with the young, the old, the pocket passer, the guy who moves. And I think even though it wasn't always an ideal scenario, like in Indy having a different quarterback every year, I did learn a lot through it because you're forced to adapt and evolve your offense around different styles of quarterbacks."
  • Derek Carr will also attend the Pro Bowl, which should be renamed to Mid Bowl, at this point.
  • The Denver Broncos hired their next head coach Sean Payton, and one of his biggest tasks is to fix Russell Wilson. In 2022, Wilson had one of the worst seasons of his career, and his new coach is already somehow convinced he can be the one to resurrect the old Russell Wilson. "Russell is a hard worker and has played at a high level and won a lot of games in this league. The pressure is on us to put a good run game together and reduce the degree of difficulty on his position. I'm excited about him." Let's ride, indeed.

could the Bears take a QB with the No. 1 pick?

1/11/2023

The Chicago Bears have the first pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, but they already have their QB of the future in Justin Fields. General Manager Ryan Poles said he wouldn't rule out taking a QB with the first pick but would have to be "blown away." This opens up a potential trade for the first pick or taking a much-needed position player.

Justin Fields was one of the most flashy quarterbacks of 2022, nearly breaking Lamar Jackson's record for most rushing yards by a quarterback in a single season. But, like Jackson, Poles stated that Fields needs to grow as a passer.

The Bears would be stupid to move on from Fields and instead need to build around him. Chicago can benefit from picking top offensive linemen and/or weapons to surround Fields with in this year's draft rather than looking to replace him.

When asked, Bears GM Ryan Poles said he plans on QB Justin Fields being the team’s starter next season.

He said that he has to be “absolutely blown away” to take a QB at No. 1.

more Qb news:

  • Stop me if this is too shocking, but the Washington Commanders have a need at the quarterback position. The team signed Carson Wentz this offseason, crossing their fingers that he wouldn't be Carson Wentz, to no avail. Wentz would count $26.1 million against the cap, should they keep him around.

Asked about the franchise's plan at QB, and whether Carson Wentz will be with the team next year, Commanders GM Martin Mayhew said "We're currently working through all that."

  • Injuries have been the story for the 2022 Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but heading into their first postseason game this week, Tom Brady says they're the healthiest they've been all year. "I'm hoping we're pretty healthy. I believe we're going to be as healthy as we've been all year, which is kind of exciting to get some guys back that haven't been in there and then see if we can go play our best football."
  • Trevor Lawrence was listed as limited on Tuesday's injury report.
  • The Detroit Lions had a great 2022, and a lot of it has to do with the emergence of quarterback Jared Goff. While many doubted him, and he was on the losing end of a monster trade (Matthew Stafford), he pulled together his best season yet. General Manager Brad Holmes said Goff proved himself this year. "I'll say this; I think it's a lot easier to get worse at quarterback than to get better at quarterback in this league... I do think Jared has proven to everybody that he is a starting quarterback for us."
  • The first 90 days of Deshaun Watson's offseason include him sitting for a deposition in his latest civil lawsuit.

Matt Ryan benched, again

12/22/2022

Picture

Merry Christmas to me!

The Indianapolis Colts are benching quarterback Matt Ryan - yes, again - for Nick Foles. Foles will be their third quarterback to start this season. Definitely not what they had planned.

The Colts are changing quarterbacks again. Nick Foles will take over for Matt Ryan as the starter Monday Night against the Chargers, and the plan is for Foles to start the final three games of the season. Announcement expected Wednesday afternoon.

— Dan Graziano (@DanGrazianoESPN) December 21, 2022

The first time Ryan was benched, rookie Sam Ehlinger took over, and head coach Frank Reich was later fired. Then, the Colts hired Jeff Saturday for some reason, went back to Ryan, and blew the biggest lead in NFL history.

Foles, their last hope, is a former Super Bowl MVP and has only played two snaps this season - the final snaps of a 24-0 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. Foles said on Wednesday that he had no frustration towards the Colts for not turning to him earlier in the season.

The Colts take on Justin Herbert, an actual good QB, and the Los Angeles Chargers on Monday Night Football.

more Qb news:

  • Lamar Jackson did not practice again on Wednesday, putting his status for this week in jeopardy.

Ravens QB Lamar Jackson (knee) was not at practice. This would be his eighth straight absence.

It’s not looking likely that he’ll be back for Saturday’s game vs. Atlanta.

  • The Dallas Cowboys lost to the Jacksonville Jaguars last week, but Dak Prescott played well, as long as you don't count that pick-six in overtime. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones says he doesn't fault Prescott for the loss. "We can win with him playing like that, to be trite. I thought he played outstanding."
  • Colt McCoy will not play this week, due to a concussion. QB Trace McSorley will start for the Arizona Cardinals, which will be quite an adventure.

Cardinals have ruled out quarterback Colt McCoy vs. the Bucs due to his concussion.

— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) December 21, 2022
  • Kirk Cousins is the NFC offensive player of the week. Cousins led the Minnesota Vikings to the biggest comeback in NFL history against the Indianapolis Colts, throwing four touchdowns after the half.
  • Josh Allen was named the AFC offensive player of the week, completing 25-of-40 passes for 304 yards and four touchdowns in a Buffalo Bills win.
  • Ryan Tannehill is facing an "uphill battle" to play this week. Tannehill injured his ankle during Week 15's loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. Malik Willis would get the start should Tannehill not be able to go.
    • Because of Tannehill's injury, the Tennessee Titans signed QB Josh Dobbs off the Detroit Lions practice squad. Head coach Mike Vrabel said adding Dobbs helps the team with depth as they prepare for this week.

— Tom Pelissero (@TomPelissero) December 20, 2022
  • The Philadelphia Eagles have not yet ruled out Jalen Hurts, but Gardner Minshew will make the start for at least this week. The team isn't that worried, though, according to tight end Dallas Goedert. "He's just got a lot of respect because he comes in here to work every day, prepares like the starter even though he knows he's the backup. He knows his role, and he just waits for an opportunity like this, and we all have faith that he's going to make the most of it."
    • Hurts was not seen at practice on Wednesday.
  • The Houston Texans will continue to rotate quarterbacks this week, per Pep Hamilton. I guess it's the only thing that makes them look like a competent football team.

Pep Hamilton on using Jeff Driskel in two-quarterback system, said it was initially an 'experiment,' now it's a part of the offense to 'create conflict,' disrupt the defense. 'We hope it will limit the potential looks we will see.'

  • The Jaguars listed Trevor Lawrence as questionable this week with a toe injury.

Falcons make a QB change

12/9/2022

Picture
The Atlanta Falcons are on a bye this week but come Week 15; they'll have a new quarterback. The team is benching starter Marcus Mariota in favor of rookie QB Desmond Ridder, a move that came too late, in my opinion.

Sources: The #Falcons are looking to the future, making a QB switch to rookie Desmond Ridder as the starter. pic.twitter.com/x5GDff5VFx

— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) December 8, 2022
Ridder was selected in the third round of the 2022 NFL Draft after being a standout at Cincinnati. Ridder has not taken any regular season snaps yet, but he'll have extra time to prepare.

More importantly, Ridder's performance over the last quarter of the NFL season should give the team some clarity on if he is their QB of the Future.

More QB news:

  • First, they lost Trey Lance. Then they lost Jimmy Garoppolo. So now, in the thick of a playoff race, the San Francisco 49ers are forced to turn to rookie Brock Purdy at quarterback. Usually, I would be panicking, but offensive lineman Trent Williams sees a tough player who doesn't necessarily act like a rookie. "You would think he's been in the league 15 years. If you're talking, he'll say, 'Shut your ass up.' He ain't no timid rookie feeling his way around. He will get on your ass."
    • Head coach Kyle Shanahan spoke about the change from Garoppolo to Purdy and how it wasn't as difficult as it was to switch from Lance to Garoppolo. "Jimmy and Brock aren't necessarily running threats, so you don't sit there and design stuff like that, but they're definitely both mobile enough to make plays with their legs."
  • The Detroit Lions, surprisingly, are playing really good football right now. More specifically, Jared Goff is playing really good football right now. He acknowledged his play, pointing to it as the best of his career thus far. "I've played a lot of good football in my career, but I feel as comfortable as I've ever felt."
  • As expected, Lamar Jackson did not practice for the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday. Jackson exited last week's game with a knee injury. Backup Tyler Huntley should be the presumed starter for the next week, perhaps longer.

Ravens QB Lamar Jackson did not practice for a second straight day on Thursday. He's dealing with a knee injury.

  • Amid a strong 2022 for Tua Tagovailoa, he had a head-scratching performance in Week 14. He was later pulled late in the fourth quarter for an ankle injury. But head coach Mike McDaniel says the Miami Dolphins' poor performance was more than just Tagovailoa's shortcomings. "From a football perspective, everything that went wrong wasn't a direct result of the quarterback. It never is exactly like that. However, we all know that he wants to play as well as he can, and he thinks he could have done better in that game."
    • Tagovailoa remained limited in Thursday's practice.
  • Trevor Lawrence did not practice on Thursday with a toe injury.
  • The Dallas Cowboys are the current favorites to land free agent wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr., but questions have been raised about his availability coming off an ACL injury. QB Dak Prescott said it's a plus if he ends up signing, but they're good with what they have if not. "We like our guys," if you will.

Cowboys QB Dak Prescott on free agent WR Odell Beckham Jr.: “I felt like the visit went well. I know us meeting, having lunch with a couple of guys, I know it well.” Knows it’s a business. “If we get him, hell yeah it’s going to help. And if not, I’m confident in what we have.”

  • Geno Smith was added to the Seattle Seahawks injury report on Thursday with a shoulder injury. It's unclear at the moment of the severity, but it is his throwing shoulder. So, it's something to keep an eye on.

Seahawks injury report --- still no Walker or Deejay Dallas. And certainly noteworthy that Geno Smith suddenly shows up as limited with a right shoulder injury. He was not listed with that earlier in the week. Smith did take a hard shot or two against the Rams. pic.twitter.com/VyXcJxw3Z2

more QB News:

  • The Cleveland Browns held a press conference on Wednesday, where General Manager Andrew Berry spoke about quarterback Deshaun Watson's eventual return to the field. Watson is nearing the end of his 11-game suspension, and Berry acknowledged that it might take a bit for Watson to get up to speed. "We spent a lot of time with Deshaun in the spring and banked a lot of good reps during that time. That being said, like I don't think that our approach isn't to, really, any quarterback, but you know, certainly with the time that Deshaun has had off to expect him to shoulder everything."
  • The Carolina Panthers are sticking with QB PJ Walker as their starter even though the guy they traded for in the offseason, Baker Mayfield, is healthy. Mayfield may not be happy with his role as the backup at this time, but acknowledges it's not his call.

But yeah, I wish him the best, and I know he'll be successful in doing his thing. Happy for him and hope everything works out for him."

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson was the better QB during Thursday Night Football, but only if you point to the second half. After a shaky start, Jackson ended up going 27-of-38 passes for 238 yards and two touchdowns in a 27-22 win over Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

And just sliding back a little bit and just need to step up and help those guys out. Be up in the pocket a little bit more."

  • Wide receiver Deebo Samuel has been in contract talks with the San Francisco 49ers all offseason, while rumors have also been swirling that the team is trying to trade him. However, the All-Pro is coming off of his best season in 2021, so the time to trade him to get the maximum in exchange is probably now. With other receivers like Stefon Diggs and Tyreek Hill getting paid top-dollar, Samuel undoubtedly wants in on the action. The only question is if it will be with the Niners or with someone else. Samuel recently pulled the ol' social media unfollow on his current team, leaving some to wonder if talks have stalled with San Francisco.

  • The Detroit Lions have the No. 2 pick in the 2022 NFL Draft, and they have quite an exciting approach to picking their first-round guy: They want him to be an instant starter. Groundbreaking. However, this tends to lean toward the notion that they won't be using this pick on a quarterback; as frustrating as current starter Jared Goff is at times, I don't think there is a guy that will start over him in September. They could (and probably should) take a quarterback in the later rounds.

Campbell on No. 2 pick: “You want a guy who can come in and he’s a Day 1 starter. That’s really what you’re trying to acquire. You’d like to think by the time you hit your first game this player is staring for you and he’s going to be able to produce."

  • The Indianapolis Colts recently signed quarterback Matt Ryan for some reason, but they're still looking at draft prospects at the same position. Indy has recently scheduled a visit with top QB prospect and likely first-round draft choice Malik Willis, out of Liberty.
