Former Giants QB Daniel Jones plans to sign with the Vikings practice squad, after having cleared waivers, per me, @TomPelissero and @CameronWolfe.

A new beginning and opportunity for Jones with a chance to the backup.

Related Players: Sam Darnold, Nick Mullens, Brett Rypien

This seems like a great signing for both parties; Jones breathes new life into his NFL career and the Vikings have a legit backup in case anything happens to Darnold. We'll see if KOC can work his magic on Jones and revive a career that was heading in a terrible direction.

Jets’ QB Trevor Siemian will start Sunday vs. the Commanders.

Related Players: Zach Wilson, Brett Rypien

Zach Wilson has been declared out with a concussion for Sunday, so Siemian and Rypien will be the options for the Jets in Week 16. Garrett Wilson continues to play in quarterback purgatory, but his talent still makes him a WR2 option.

Zach Wilson -- benched in each of the past two seasons, most recently in late November in favor of Tim Boyle, who was released yesterday -- has been named the Jets' starting quarterback for Sunday's game vs. the Texans.

Wilson should be avoided in all fantasy formats wherever possible, no matter how deep the league is. Garrett Wilson should receive a small boost, but still remains a WR2.

Tim Boyle, the No. 3 quarterback who became the starter after the Jets benched Zach Wilson, will be released by the Jets, according to Josina Anderson of CBS Sports.

The Jets also will be signing quarterback Brett Rypien from the Seattle practice squad.

There is no update on who the Jets plan to start this week. There are conflicting reports about the team wanting to go back to Wilson but Wilson being reluctant to play. With Boyle out of the picture and Rypien perhaps needing more time to get up to speed, it could mean Siemian gets the nob. We'll likely know more by later in the week, but it probably goes without saying no one is really a good option outside of desperation plays in deeper two-QB or superflex leagues and dynasty leagues.

Carson Wentz is signing with the Los Angeles Rams, per source.

Related players: Matthew Stafford, Brett Rypien

The Rams are optimistic Stafford will be able to play in Week 11, after the team's Week 10 bye, so this move seems to be more about insurance. Rypien threw for just 130 yards and added an interception in a loss to the Packers last week. Wentz should at least provide some stability at the position if Stafford has to miss more time. Wentz should be able to get up to speed during the team's bye this week.

Sean McVay sounded optimistic about getting QB Matthew Stafford back post-bye.

The Rams have a bye in Week 10, so nothing is definitive yet. Rodrigue went on to say McVay was responding to a question about a backup QB, but McVay indicated that wasn't something the Rams would be forced to weigh because of “the direction they are headed,” meaning they were optimistic about Stafford.

Per Sarah, "I don’t see QB Matthew Stafford (thumb) or RT Rob Havenstein (calf) during the portion of practice open to the media."

Stafford is notorious for playing through injuries, but this one isn't trending in the right direction. If he misses Week 9, the entire offense takes a hit.

Rams’ QB Matthew Stafford, who has a UCL sprain in his right thumb, is not practicing today. The Rams play at Green Bay on Sunday.

Rams QB Matthew Stafford is day to day with a UCL sprain, per coach Sean McVay.

Stafford's status for Week 9 is up in the air as of now, but overall it's pretty good news for the QB and his fantasy owners. It will likely come down to how Stafford is able to grip the ball and perhaps any pain that may be involved. Stafford is as tough as they come, so it may be an issue of how much zip he can put on the ball. If he can't go, Rypien would get the start. The Rams do play an early game at Green Bay in Week 9, but the team does have a Week 10 bye.

The Rams are evaluating a range of potential scenarios with QB Matthew Stafford and his thumb injury, per source, and he’ll have further testing plus assessment on how he’s gripping the ball through the week.

Rodrigue said the team is pretty much looking at everything, including possible colder conditions in Green Bay in Week 9 - as far as gripping the ball goes. The Rams also have a bye in Week 10. Rodrigue added the team is considering the short term, but the Rams are also not ruling out injured reserve at this point, as they are still gathering information that helps discern a larger timeline for Stafford. Rypien came on in relief of Stafford in Week 8 and could be the assumed starter if Stafford has to miss Week 9. The team drafted Bennett this past spring.
