Ravens Release Cooper Rush

Thursday, March 12, 8:55 AM

The Baltimore Ravens released quarterback Cooper Rush on Thursday, according to Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network. Rush signed a two-year, $6.2 million deal with Baltimore last offseason, but he'll be looking for work this offseason after one year with the Ravens. The 32-year-old veteran signal-caller appeared in four games for the Ravens last year and started two games with Lamar Jackson injured, going 34-for-52 passing for 303 yards, no touchdowns, and four interceptions. The former undrafted free agent out of Central Michigan debuted in the NFL in 2017 with the Dallas Cowboys and has completed 61.1% of his passes for 3,766 yards, 20 touchdowns, and 14 interceptions in his eight-year career. Rush was expendable in Baltimore with Tyler Huntley returning to back up Jackson for the 2026 season.

Jaxson Dart to Benefit from Improved Weaponry in Year 2

Saturday, March 14, 4:27 PM

From Weeks 4 through 10 of the 2025 season, New York Giants rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart was the QB3 across most fantasy formats. He would miss the next two weeks with a concussion and finish as QB13 across his 12 starts. He now enters 2026 with an improved supporting cast and a chance to take a massive leap in year two. The Giants have added tight end Isaiah Likely and wide receiver Darnell Mooney through free agency and are expected to see the returns of Malik Nabers and Cam Skattebo, both of whom ended their season on injured reserve. Dart finished his rookie year with nearly 500 yards on the ground and nine rushing touchdowns, and his rushing prowess will continue to provide a safe fantasy floor, but with the notable upgrades to the weaponry around him, his upside case is as strong as any quarterback outside the fantasy elite.
