Easton Stick

TB Quarterback #4

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Buccaneers signed QB Easton Stick to their practice squad.

Stick was released by the Colts at the end of the preseason. He’ll be third on the depth chart to begin the year behind Baker Mayfield and Jalon Daniels.
Kyle Trask

FA Quarterback #16

Free agent quarterback Kyle Trask will attend the Saints’ rookie minicamp.

Per NewOrleans.Football’s Nick Underhill, Easton Stick will also have a tryout during mincamp. Trask re-signed with the Bucs last offseason but failed to crack the roster at the end of training camp. He later joined the Falcons’ practice squad. The Saints currently have Spencer Rattler and Zach Wilson as options to back up Tyler Shough.
Nick Nash

FA Wide Receiver #80

Falcons waived WR Nick Nash.

The Falcons also waived TE Joshua Simon, OL Joshua Gray, WR Dylan Drummond, CB Dontae Manning, DL Simeon Barrow Jr., RB Carlos Washington Jr., CB Cobee Bryant, K Lenny Krieg, RB Elijah Dotson, TE Nikola Kalinic, WR Quincy Skinner Jr. and S Josh Thompson. The Falcons released OL Jordan Williams, S Henry Black, S Jordan Fuller, EDGE Khalid Kareem, OL Brandon Parker, QB Easton Stick, DL Kentavius Street, CB Keith Taylor, OL Jake Hanson, CB CJ Henderson, LB/S Ronnie Harrison, WR Chris Blair, OL Matthew Cindric, QB Ben DiNucci, DL Morgan Fox, LB Caleb Johnson, CB Lamar Jackson, LB Nick Kubitz, WR Jesse Matthews and EDGE Ronnie Perkins.
Easton Stick

ATL Quarterback #2

Falcons signed QB Easton Stick, formerly of the Chargers.

Stick is a former fifth-round pick who has seen action in six games since entering the league in 2019. Sporting a 0-4 record as a starter, Stick has a career passing line of 1,133-3-1 and has rushed 28 times for 142 yards and one touchdown. He’s a dual-threat quarterback who excelled in the college ranks while playing for North Dakota State, but Stick has never been anything more than a low-end backup for his career. He’ll have a chance to compete for a spot on the Falcons’ 53-man roster in camp, but he could be on the outside looking in depending on who else the Falcons add in the coming weeks.
Hayden Hurst

LAC Tight End #88

Hayden Hurst (hip) is active for Week 16 against the Broncos.

Hurt will be playing for the first time since the end of November after being placed on injured reserve with his hip injury He isn’t likely to be a major fantasy contributor, but with Will Dissly (shoulder) inactive, it could open up some snaps/targets. The remaining inactives for the Chargers are CB Cam Hart S Elijah Molden LB Shaquille Quarterman OL Brenden Jaimes OL Jordan McFadden and QB Easton Stick (emergency QB)
Justin Herbert

LAC Quarterback #10

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports Justin Herbert (ankle) is “preparing to play” in Week 3 against the Steelers.

Schefter noted that the team hasn’t made a final decision on his status yet and that won’t happen until pre-game warmups. Herbert suffered a high-ankle sprain in the Chargers Week 2 win over the Panthers. He logged a limited practice on Thursday but was listed as a DNP for the other two sessions of the week. Herbert has a chance to play but remains a true game-time call. Fantasy managers need to have a backup plan in place and it shouldn’t be another LA quarterback. Per Schefter, “The team has contingencies that involve both Easton Stick and Taylor Heinicke.”
Justin Herbert

LAC Quarterback #10

Justin Herbert (ankle) is questionable for Week 3 against the Steelers.

Herbert told reporters he suffered a high-ankle sprain in the Chargers’ Week 2 win over the Panthers. Few players play through that injury without missing any time, so it looks like Herbert is going to be a true game-time call for Week 3. Per The Athletic’s Daniel Popper, Herbert did not practice on Friday before being listed as questionable. He was a limited participant in Thursday’s session. Jim Harbaugh wouldn’t say who will draw the start if Herbert can’t play. The Chargers have Taylor Heinicke and Easton Stick on the active roster. Either way, LA projects to lead the league in rush attempts versus a Steelers team that wants to play the same game.
Easton Stick

LAC Quarterback #2

Chargers re-signed QB Easton Stick.

Drafted in the fifth round of the 2019 NFL Draft, Stick had one career pass attempt heading into 2023. Justin Herbert went down for the season late in the year and Stick stepped in for the first four starts in the league. He went winless in those games but put up a respectable 1,129 yards, three scores, and one interception. Stick will return to LA for QB2 duties in 2024, his age-29 season.
Easton Stick

LAC Quarterback #2

Easton Stick completed 28-of-45 attempts for 258 yards in the Chargers’ 13-12 Week 18 loss against the Chiefs, adding 13 rushes for 77 yards.

Stick, a prodigious rusher in college and a good athlete, finally used his mobility in the season’s final game. He picked up a few chunk gains in the first half before dropping back to pass in most of the second half. Stick, 28, got four starts this season after Justin Herbert went down with a season-ending finger injury. He struggled mightily through most of those games, throwing three touchdowns and one interception. Stick will be a free agent this offseason.
Easton Stick

LAC Quarterback #2

Easton Stick completed 24-of-38 passes for 220 yards in the Chargers’ 16-9, Week 17 loss to the Broncos, adding 31 yards on five carries.

Stick led just three field goal drives on a night the Chargers were without Justin Herbert, Keenan Allen, Mike Williams, and Joshua Palmer. The loss drops the Chargers to 5-11 as they limp towards the end of the 2023 regular season, after which they will start their search for a new head coach after former head coach Brandon Staley was fired half way through his third season with the team. Stick has one more start on tap which will come at home against the Chiefs in Week 18.

Seahawks RB George Holani (ribs) was limited in Wednesday’s practice.

Holani was listed as a limited practice participant due to a rib injury on Wednesday. The 26-year-old operated as a passing-down backup to Emanuel Wilson in Week 4 with Jadarian Price out. Unless he misses practice later this week, he is still on track to play in Week 5, though Holani does not have a large enough role to achieve fantasy relevance.

Broncos CB Patrick Surtain (ankle) did not participate in Wednesday’s practice.

Neither Surtain or Riley Moss (ribs) practiced on Wednesday. Head coach Sean Payton said the Broncos don’t anticipate placing Surtain on injured reserve. The injuries to both corners look to be shorter-term; Surtain is week-to-week while Moss’ return timeline is not disclosed yet. Both are on the wrong side of questionable for Week 5 against the Chargers.

Chargers WR Quentin Johnston (chest) was limited in Wednesday’s practice.

In addition to Johnston, TE Charlie Kolar (forearm) and WR Brenen Thompson (quad) were also limited. Johnston has played in every game this season, but pops up on the practice report with a chest issue on Wednesday. He is not yet in danger of missing Week 5, barring setbacks later in the week. Neither Thompson nor Kolar have played since Week 2 but both have a chance to return this week against the Broncos. With Ladd McConkey (foot) not practicing, Johnston may have fantasy value as the Chargers’ No. 1 wideout this week.

Chargers WR Ladd McConkey (foot) did not participate in Wednesday’s practice.

Though head coach Jim Harbaugh ambiguously said we would get McConkey in practice, the 24-year-old is officially listed as a non-participant on Wednesday. Harbaugh also previously stated McConkey will be day-to-day after he re-aggravated the foot injury in Week 4. Ultimately, it’s unclear if McConkey will play this week given he generally pushes through injuries with little practice time, but a re-aggravation could lead to a game missed this time around. Stay tuned for practice reports later in the week to provide clarity on his Week 5 status.

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports Chargers OT Joe Alt (neck) is expected to miss Week 5 against the Broncos.

An already disappointing season continues to tumbler for the Chargers. LT Rashawn Slater (ankle) is already out this week and Alt will join him on the injury report. Neither starting tackle has been able to stay healthy over the course of their careers, making life difficult for QB Justin Herbert. Though Alt is expected to miss this week against the Broncos, Rapoport adds that there are “no plans” for him to go on injured reserve.

49ers EDGE Nick Bosa (knee/calf) did not participate in Wednesday’s practice.

Bosa has yet to return to practice since injuring his calf two weeks ago in practice. He is listed with both knee and calf injuries and is seemingly not close to returning to in-game action. Bosa will need to practice before we can consider him ready to go for Week 5 or beyond.

Texans EDGE Will Anderson (ankle) did not participate in Wednesday’s practice.

Anderson popped up on the injury report with an ankle issue to open the week. As one of the league’s elite pass-rushers, the 25-year-old is a key cog to the Texans defense. He did not practice Wednesday, putting his Week 5 status in jeopardy. Anderson still has chances to practice later this week and play against the Titans, but any time missed puts the 0-4 Texans in an even deeper hole.

Eagles WR Devonta Smith (hamstring) did not participate in Wednesday’s practice.

Smith still has not returned to practice since last week, continuing to deal with a hamstring injury. Given his lack of practice reps ahead of travelling to London for Week 5, Smith is on the wrong side of questionable for this week’s matchup against the Jaguars. Also not practicing was WR Hollywood Brown (ankle). The Eagles will play Week 5 with a severely banged-up skill position group.
