    • Excels at minicamp
      Darnold took every first-team rep during mandatory minicamp, with Alec Lewis of The Athletic reporting that the veteran quarterback's "consistency stood out for three days" while J.J. McCarthy missed more throws.

      Advice: Lewis says McCarthy's inconsistency is to be expected and adds that "overarching quarterback observations are largely unimportant at this stage" of the offseason. The rookie will have a chance to win the starting job this summer, so it'll be more of a story if he's still lagging far behind Darnold in early-to-mid August after a few weeks of training camp. Lewis also notes that McCarthy had his best day yet Thursday, the final day of minicamp, perhaps giving him something to build on when the Vikings hold their final round of OTAs on June 10-13.

    • Learning another new offense
      Hurts said the offense he's learning under new coordinator Kellen Moore is "probably 95 percent" new, Brooks Kubena of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Hurts will work with his fifth playcaller in as many pro seasons, having gone from Doug Pederson to Nick Sirianni to Shane Steichen to Brian Johnson to Moore. It sounds like this will be the biggest change to the Eagles offense since 2021, when Sirianni replaced Pederson as the head coach and the team drafted WR DeVonta Smith in the first round. The unit will have two new starters this season, with RB Saquon Barkley signed to replace D'Andre Swift (Bears) and the right guard job up for grabs with Cam Jurgens shifting over to center to replace a retired Jason Kelce. The new offense figures to entail a lot more pre-snap motion, something the Eagles used on a league-low 10.9 percent of plays last season (the Chargers ranked eighth under Moore at 25.9 percent).

    • Hurts: 95% of Kellen Moore’s offense is new
      Jalen Hurts said 95 percent of the Eagles’ new offense is new.

      Advice: Incoming offensive coordinator Kellen Moore, fresh of being fired by the Cowboys and flaming out with the Chargers, is overhauling the Philadelphia offense this summer. “I think the goal coming in was to learn Kellen’s offense and to master it, and I think that’s been a process, and by the end of it, I want it to be mine and have it in my own way,” Hurts told reporters after a recent OTA practice. Moore comes to the Eagles with a mixed record: His hyper-conservative Dallas offenses were top six in yards in three of his four seasons as OC, but his one year in LA was disastrous, due in part to Justin Herbert missing time. Moore’s focus on the rushing attack could be a boon for Saquon Barkley in 2024. It remains to be seen if Moore will keep using the most effective play in football, the tush push.

    • Daniel Jones could participate in team drills
      Daniel Jones (ACL) could participate in team drills during Giants minicamp next week.

      Advice: Coach Brian Daboll came far from saying it was a sure thing, but he left the door wide open for Jones to participate. It’s becoming clear Jones will be ready for Week 1, and perhaps even a full participant for training camp. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:24 pm

    • Drake Maye advances to No. 2 role in OTAs
      The Athletic’s Chad Graff reports Drake Maye ran the second-team offense during Tuesday’s organized team activities (OTAs).

      Advice: Maye started OTAs playing behind starter Jacoby Brissett and backup Bailey Zappe. This should not be read as a major development as the team is likely just giving Maye an opportunity to play against higher-quality defenders and offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt reiterated “Jacoby, again, is our starter.” Rotoworld Yesterday, 2:14 pm

    • Rapoport: Seahawks sign veteran QB P.J. Walker
      Seahawks signed QB P.J. Walker, formerly of the Browns.

      Advice: Walker took the field in six games for the Browns last year, throwing for 674 yards, one touchdown and five interceptions via an underwhelming 48.6% completion rate. Walker is unlikely to threaten No. 2 quarterback Sam Howell’s role but can helpfully serve as a mentor, having bounced around the league since 2017. Rotoworld Yesterday, 12:10 pm

    • Lands in Seattle
      The Seahawks are slated to sign Walker to a contract, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

      Advice: Walker gives Seattle a necessary third quarterback on the depth chart in advance of training camp. He'll now have an opportunity to compete for the No. 3 job behind Geno Smith and Sam Howell. Walker is among the league's more experienced depth options, as he suited up for 21 regular-season games from 2020-23. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:48 am

    • Still managing soreness
      Richardson took a rest day at practice Thursday due to shoulder soreness, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Coach Shane Steichen said "there's nothing to worry about," per Boyd, and that Richardson would be in line to play were the Colts preparing for a game-scenario this weekend. Steichen added that Richardson had his shoulder checked Thursday morning, and it was confirmed that the quarterback is only dealing with soreness in his surgically repaired right shoulder. Richardson has been participating in 11-on-11 drills and throwing throughout OTAs, and some soreness as he ramps up his practice activities is to be expected. He remains on track to be full strength for the start of training camp late July. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:48 am

    • Anthony Richardson dealing with shoulder soreness
      Colts HC Shane Steichen said Anthony Richardson is dealing with some soreness in his right shoulder.

      Advice: Richardson was spotted participating in team drills but was noticeably throwing with his left hand rather than his right. Steichen downplayed the severity of the soreness Richardson is dealing with, saying the second-year quarterback still feels well enough to play in a game if it were that time of year. Richardson’s shoulder will remain a hot topic of conversation throughout the offseason after he played in just four games last year. Richardson’s ceiling for this upcoming fantasy season is as high as that of any quarterback in the league after he averaged an impressive 27.4 fantasy points per game in the two games he appeared in start-to-finish.
