Daniel Jones said he’s “in a good spot” with his knee rehab.

Advice: A rough 2023 was made worse for Jones when he suffered a torn ACL in November. He then sat through an entire offseason wondering if the Giants would replace him despite signing a four-year, $160 million extension with them a year ago. Instead of drafting a new quarterback, the Giants opted to go with wide receiver Malik Nabers, who, in short order, should become Jones’ No. 1 weapon in the passing game. Jones should be ready at or close to the time training camp starts up for the Giants if all continues to go well, and said he’s “focused on what [he] can control” and will “be ready to go.” If he can get back to his 2022 form, which saw him finish as a top-12 fantasy QB seven times, Jones will have some high-end QB2 upside, but he’ll face a new challenge of figuring out how to move the ball in a post-Saquon Barkley world, which could prove difficult at times.

With veteran newcomer Jacoby Brissett and 2024 first-rounder Drake Maye viewed as roster locks, Zappe figures to compete with rookie sixth-rounder Joe Milton and Nathan Rourke for slotting on the Patriots' depth chart, Andrew Callahan of the Boston Herald reports.

Advice: Alternatively, Callahan suggests that with five QBs in the mix the Patriots could look to move Zappe, who drew six regular-season starts for the team in 2023. For now, however, Zappe remains with the organization that selected him 137th overall in the 2022 draft. In any case, even if the 25-year-old ends up sticking around as a depth option, he won't have a path to a potential starting role, as long as Brissett and Maye are healthy. With that in mind, Callahan suggests that Zappe could find himself on the radar of other teams seeking signal-caller options once injuries hit. Rotowire.com Today, 9:07 am

The Cowboys declined Lance's fifth-year option for the 2025 season Wednesday, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

Advice: Dallas' decision comes as little surprise, as the No. 3 overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft appeared in just eight games over his first two seasons in the league with the 49ers and then didn't play a single snap for Dallas in 2023 after being acquired prior to Week 1. Lance remains on Dallas' roster for the upcoming season and will compete with Cooper Rush for backup duties behind starting quarterback Dak Prescott. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 4:43 pm

Murray will be throwing to a new No. 1 wide receiver during the upcoming season and beyond after the Cardinals selected Marvin Harrison with the No. 4 overall pick in last week's draft.

Advice: Murray's 2023 debut was delayed due to a torn ACL in his right knee that he suffered Dec. 12, 2022. Upon his return Week 10, he started the final eight games of the season, completing 176 of 268 passes (65.7 percent) for 1,799 yards, 10 touchdowns and five interceptions while rushing 44 times for 244 yards and three more scores. By the end of the season, second-year tight end Trey McBride had emerged as Murray's favorite target, and after the offseason departure of Marquise Brown, the quarterback was in search of a dynamic weapon in the passing game. The arrival of Harrison provides just that for Murray, who also will have running back James Conner and wideout Michael Wilson at his disposal. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:35 pm

The Broncos informed Wilson on Wednesday that they won't exercise his fifth-year team option for 2025, Jeff Legwold of ESPN.com reports.

Advice: Wilson, whom the Jets took with the No. 2 overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, joined the Broncos in a trade shortly before April's draft. With Denver not in line to pick up his fifth-year option -- which would have been for a guaranteed $22.4 million -- the 24 year-old will become a free agent next March. For now, Wilson is slated to compete with first-round rookie Bo Nix and Jarrett Stidham -- who started Denver's final two games of the 2023 regular season -- for the Week 1 starting assignment. While Nix is presumably viewed as the franchise's long-term answer at quarterback, in the short term, slotting at the position is up for grabs in advance of training camp.
