The #Raiders have agreed to terms with QB Gardner Minshew on a 2-year deal. He'll compete with QB Aidan O'Connell.

Minshew performed admirably in steed of Anthony Richardson, but this doesn't do a lot for fantasy purposes. He has proven that he doesn't mind honing in on a #1 option, so should he win the job, Davante Adams should expect plenty of targets.

We reported on Monday the Colts and Richardson were discussing season-ending surgery as an option. With the Colts likely not poised for a deep playoff run, the team is thinking about the future of their franchise QB and it seems like they are pretty close to the surgery option. Richardson flashed in his short time on the field, throwing three TDs and just one INT. With really only three full games under his belt, Richardson twice rushed 10 times and rushed for four TDs in that three-game span.

Colts QB Anthony Richardson could opt for season-ending shoulder surgery, and coach Shane Steichen was asked whether the Colts will take a longer-term view of their franchise quarterback.
