  Browns | Jeff Driskel named the backup    Wed Jan 10, 01:37 PM

Cleveland Browns QB Jeff Driskel was named the team's backup quarterback for the playoffs on Wednesday, Jan. 10.

Footballguys view: Driskel started in Week 18 while Joe Flacco got some rest. Flacco has been hot during his time as the starter for the Browns, and they'll be one of the toughest teams to face in the postseason. On Saturday, Flacco and company travel to play the Texans in the Wild Card Round.

  Browns | Joe Flacco won't play in Week 18    Wed Jan 3, 01:07 PM

Cleveland Browns QB Joe Flacco will be among the team's starters to rest in Week 18, head coach Kevin Stefanski said on Wednesday, Jan. 3. Instead, QB Jeff Driskel will start.

Footballguys view: The Browns have been on fire with Flacco as their starter. Winners of four in a row, the Browns are headed to the playoffs with momentum. With that defense and Flacco playing "YOLO" ball, nobody is going to want to face the Browns in a win-or-go-home situation.

  Cardinals | Three QBs may compete for one spot    Tue Jul 11, 03:04 AM

Arizona Cardinals QBs David Blough, Jeff Driskel and Clayton Tune will compete for the No. 3 quarterback job during training camp. The winner will serve as the No. 2 quarterback while QB Kyler Murray (knee) is sidelined.

Footballguys view: Colt McCoy is there to start while Murray is banged up. Behind him, these three will compete for the no.2 (will be no.3) spot. We imagine the Cardinals can't be terribly inspired by these guys, so they could be in the market for a free agent veteran or they could watch to see if any other team lets a quarterback they like go.

Houston Texans QB Jeff Driskel was promoted from the practice squad Wednesday, Sept. 22, and he'll serve as the backup.

Footballguys view: Driskel is a seasoned veteran with some starting experience in the NFL. He hasn't been good as a starter but he's got scrambling ability so that would help if he sees the field. The Texans are going with rookie Davis Mills as their starter on Thursday against the Panthers.

  Texans | Jeff Driskel signing with Houston    Wed May 19, 08:23 PM

Free-agent QB Jeff Driskel (Broncos) is signing a one-year contract with the Houston Texans, according to his agents Wednesday, May 19. The deal is worth up to $2.5 million.

Footballguys view: The Texans now have a quarterback room that includes Driskel, Tyrod Taylor, Ryan Finley, and third-round pick Davis Mills - and Deshaun Watson. It's difficult to conclude anything but the Texans expecting to be without Watson this season, and maybe beyond. Driskel is athletic but limited as a passer and best suited as an emergency backup. Taylor is certain to make the team in any event, but if Driskel beats out Finley, it will mean the team gave up a small amount of draft capital (bump from 7th to 6th round) for nothing.

  Cowboys | Jeff Driskel not an option yet    Fri May 7, 05:34 PM

Free-agent QB Jeff Driskel (Broncos) will not be signed by the Dallas Cowboys at this point, according to a source.

Footballguys view: The Cowboys are just updating their emergency list. They may sign Driskel at some point this offseason to be a camp arm and to compete for a backup job. Dak Prescott is their starter but behind him they don't have much experience with guys like Ben DiNucci, Garrett Gilbert and Cooper Rush.

  Cowboys | Jeff Driskel visits    Fri May 7, 04:04 PM

Free-agent QB Jeff Driskel (Broncos) recently met with the Dallas Cowboys, and there is a strong chance that he signs with the team, according to a source.

Footballguys view: Driskel didn't do much with the Broncos last year. He was brought in to push Drew Lock and help teach him the ropes and Lock was regularly one of the worst quarterbacks in the league. The veteran has experience but isn't a great choice if he has to start.

  Broncos | Jeff Driskel let go    Mon May 3, 04:49 PM

Denver Broncos QB Jeff Driskel was released Monday, May 3, according to a source.
