Footballguys view: Look for Alex Tanney trick shot videos on YouTube, trust us you will not be disappointed. However, don't keep Tanney on your roster even in the deepest of deep dynasty formats.

  Cowboys | Clayton Thorson signs futures contract    Wed Jan 1, 12:41 AM

Dallas Cowboys QB Clayton Thorson signed a futures contract with the club on Tuesday, Dec. 31.

Footballguys view: Thorson was a four-year starter at Northwestern and the Eagles selected him as a fifth-round pick in the 2019 NFL draft. He's a sturdy quarterback who can pick up tough yards with his feet. Thorson has decent footwork as a passer but his deep passes tend to float. He did not make the Eagles 53-man roster and was waived at the end of the preseason, and that's when the Cowboys promptly scooped him up as a practice squad player. We'll monitor him but only in crazy deep dynasty formats.

  Eagles | PHI satisfied with backup QB situation    Sun Aug 11, 09:22 AM

Philadelphia Eagles head coach Doug Pederson said that he is 'very comfortable' with QBs Cody Kessler and Clayton Thorson serving as backups to Carson Wentz in the wake of Nate Sudfeld's (wrist) injury.

  Eagles | Nate Sudfeld a lock    Wed Jul 10, 02:35 AM

Philadelphia Eagles QB Nate Sudfeld is a 'lock' to make the team despite an 'up and down' offseason, according to NJ.com's Mike Kaye, who adds that QB Cody Kessler would likely need a major injury to Sudfeld or QB Clayton Thorson to land a spot on the 53-man roster.

Footballguys view: The Eagles don't really have any competition for Sudfeld. He's a tall pocket passer who was a sixth-round pick for Washington in the 2016 NFL draft. The Eagles swiftly stole him via waivers when Washington wanted to get him on their practice squad and he's been developing behind Carson Wentz and Nick Foles ever since. Now, Foles is gone and Sudfeld looks to be a lock for the No. 2 job. Sudfeld sees the field well and has a strong arm to make any throw required in the NFL. We like his stock in dynasty formats, and there's a chance we see him this year in the starting lineup if Wentz continues to struggle with the injury bug.

  Eagles | Philly signs three draft picks    Fri May 10, 05:54 PM

Philadelphia Eagles second-round draft choice WR JJ Arcega-Whiteside, fourth-round draft choice DE Shareef Miller and fifth-round draft choice QB Clayton Thorson signed four-year contracts with the Eagles Friday, May 10. Financial terms were not disclosed.

Footballguys view: Arcega-Whiteside might not see much playing time this year with Nelson Agholor still on the roster, but if Alshon Jeffery or DeSean Jackson get hurt, he'll get on the field and should mesh well with Carson Wentz's penchant for throwing downfield. He'll be on our waiver wire watch list unless the Eagles suffer injuries at wide receiver in the preseason.

  Patriots | New England meets with two QB prospects    Mon Apr 15, 07:09 PM

Auburn QB Jarrett Stidham and Northwestern QB Clayton Thorson recently met with the New England Patriots, according to sources.

Footballguys view: The Patriots are looking for the heir apparent to Tom Brady...again. That could be Stidham, seen as a second-round pick in the 2019 NFL draft. Stidham has pro tools and does a good job working through progressions. Thorson is considered a third-round pick in the 2019 NFL draft. He's athletic but not a polished passer.

  Broncos | Denver set to meet with two college QBs    Sun Mar 31, 01:55 AM

Northwestern QB Clayton Thorson is scheduled to work out for the Denver Broncos on Wednesday, April 3. The Broncos are also slated to bring in Missouri QB Drew Lock for a top-30 visit April 7 and 8.

Footballguys view: The Broncos have Joe Flacco as their starting quarterback and GM John Elway thinks the veteran is still in his prime. That's debatable, but what's not deniable is the fact Denver needs to find a quarterback of the future. They don't seem to be as in love with Drew Lock as some originally thought around the Senior Bowl. Thorson could be an option for them in the third round, and he would be no threat to Flacco as the starter for a couple of years.

  Broncos | Denver to work out Clayton Thorson    Sat Mar 23, 01:06 PM

Northwestern QB Clayton Thorson is scheduled to have a private workout with the Denver Broncos, according to a source.

Footballguys view: Thorson is an athletic passer who has a nose for the end zone as a runner. He can work underneath routes but lacks the velocity to be a deep thrower consistently. Most think he's a third- or fourth-round pick in the 2019 NFL draft.
