Player Notes

  • Headed back to Detroit
    Jones signed a one-year, $3 million deal with the Lions on Wednesday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

    Advice: Jones posted 46 receptions on 81 targets for 529 yards and three touchdowns across 16 appearances with the Jaguars in 2022, his least productive healthy season since his rookie campaign. The 2012 fifth-round pick will head back to Detroit, where he played from 2016-2020, including a career-best 1,101-yard, nine-touchdown campaign in 2017. Jones figures to slot in as the No. 3 wideout behind Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams, who should be store for a hefty workload after a lost rookie season, but the Lions could still add to their pass-catching depth this offseason.

  • Named starting quarterback
    Falcons head coach Arthur Smith named Ridder the team's starting quarterback to begin the 2023 campaign, Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com reports.

    Advice: After the acquisition of Taylor Heinicke, Rothstein reported that Ridder was still expected to be Atlanta's starter, but Smith confirmed that notion Tuesday. Smith's comments also suggest that the Falcons aren't targeting a quarterback with their No. 8 overall pick in the upcoming draft. Ridder took over for Marcus Mariota and started the final four games of the 2022 campaign, recording a 63.5 percent completion percentage, 708 passing yards and two passing touchdowns while totaling 16 rushing attempts for 64 yards. After losing his first two starts, Atlanta won back-to-back games to end the season, bringing optimism for the future, but Ridder did lose a fumble in each of those wins, marking the first turnovers of his career.

  • Report: Patriots out of the Lamar sweepstakes
    The Athletic's Jeff Howe reports the Patriots will not trade for Lamar Jackson this offseason. 

    Advice: Patriots owner Robert Kraft said on Monday that Jackson, who has requested a trade from the Ravens, was interested in joining the team. But Howe said a league source knocked down any and all Lamar-to-New England talk on Tuesday. Howe suggested "the Patriots could test Jackson’s true desire to link up, attempt to convince him to accept a far more affordable deal and offer the Ravens a trade package — say, three first-round picks — to get the Ravens onboard with such a move." That, however, is unlikely. The Pats join every other NFL team in having curiously little interest in acquiring the 26-year-old former MVP quarterback. Mac Jones remains the favorite to start for the Patriots in 2023.  NBCSportsEDGE.com Today, 9:44 am

  • Signing with Raiders
    The Raiders have agreed to terms with Carter, Vincent Bonsignore of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.

    Advice: In 2022, his lone season with the Chargers, Carter caught 46 passes (on 65 targets) for 538 yards and three touchdowns. With Las Vegas, Carter -- who turns 30 next month -- is slated to give the team added depth at wide receiver behind Davante Adams, Jakobi Meyers and Hunter Renfrow, while also providing the Raiders with utility as both a kickoff or punt return option.

  • Falcons to bring in Scotty Miller as wideout depth
    Falcons signed Scotty Miller, formerly of the Buccaneers.

    Advice: Last seen being the incomplete receiver on several Tom Brady targets, Miller figures to be a depth receiver for Atlanta. Miller had a 23/185/0 line last year on 40 targets and hasn't been fantasy-relevant since 2020. We doubt that changes in Atlanta's run-heavy offense.  NBCSportsEDGE.com Yesterday, 6:14 pm
