Jackson Sparks - RotoBaller

3636 articles

I am a Senior Fantasy Analyst, College Football Lead, and Operations Associate for RotoBaller. I have followed College Football and the NFL since I was five years old and started playing fantasy football soon after. I began writing about college football at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga as the Sports Editor for the school newspaper. After graduating, I began covering fantasy football in 2021 during an internship with The Sporting News, and then joined the RotoBaller team in 2022. My favorite fantasy football format is dynasty/superflex. I enjoy spending every Saturday and Sunday watching football, and in the offseason, I catch every Saturday UFC event possible. Go Vols, and Go Titans!

Jack Kiser Inks Rookie Deal With Jaguars

Jacksonville Jaguars linebacker Jack Kiser has signed his rookie deal, and the organization has now finalized contracts with all nine of its selections in the 2025 NFL Draft. Kiser, a fourth-round pick, played six seasons for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish from 2019 to 2024. The 24-year-old played in 69 career games, tallying 275 tackles […]


Mike Green Expected to Sign Rookie Deal with Ravens on Thursday

According to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, Baltimore Ravens pass-rusher Mike Green is expected to sign his four-year rookie deal on Thursday. There has been a delay in second-round picks reaching contract agreements throughout the NFL after the Texans signed wide receiver Jayden Higgins to a fully guaranteed contract, but this deal is set to get […]


Mike Williams Retiring After Eight NFL Seasons

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams, who was recently placed on the training-camp PUP (Physically Unable to Perform) list, is retiring from the NFL after eight seasons. The 30-year-old entered the NFL as the No. 7 overall pick in the 2017 NFL Draft by the Chargers following a stellar career at Clemson. He spent […]


Rashee Rice Sentenced to Jail Time and Five-Year Probation, Likely to Face Suspension

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice has been sentenced to five years of probation and 30 days of jail time by a Dallas County judge for his involvement in a multi-car crash in Dallas during the 2024 offseason, according to NFL insider Adam Schefter. The jail time can be served at any point during […]


Darren Waller Signs $2 Million Deal With Dolphins

Miami Dolphins new tight end Darren Waller signed a one-year, $2 million contract with the organization this week. The veteran can earn an additional $3 million in incentives. Waller came out of retirement this offseason after sitting out the 2024 campaign and was dealt to the Dolphins from the New York Giants as part of […]


C.J. Stroud Working on Speed, Pocket Mobility Entering Year 3

Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud had a sophomore slump following his fantastic rookie season in 2023 out of Ohio State. After throwing for more than 4,100 yards, 23 touchdowns, and five interceptions in 15 games in Year 1, he regressed to just over 3,700 yards, 20 touchdowns, and 12 picks in Year 2. Entering 2025 […]


Daiyan Henley Full-Go for Training Camp

Los Angeles Chargers linebacker Daiyan Henley (shoulder) said he expects to be a full participant during training camp after undergoing shoulder surgery this offseason. The third-year pro out of Washington State played in all 17 games last year, so his shoulder procedure appears to have been a minor one. The former third-round pick was a […]


Terrance Ferguson Could Benefit from Rams Scheme Changes

Los Angeles Rams tight end Terrance Ferguson was selected by the team with the No. 46 overall pick in the second round of the 2025 NFL Draft out of Oregon. It was rumored that the Rams were interested in trading up for Brock Bowers in 2024 and one of Colston Loveland or Tyler Warren in […]


Jacob Cowing Could Handle Gadget Role in San Francisco

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jacob Cowing had a quiet rookie season after being selected in the fourth round of the 2024 NFL Draft out of Arizona. The 24-year-old produced just four receptions for 80 yards and rushed once for seven yards. Otherwise, he did the majority of his work as a punt returner. Entering […]


Jayden Higgins to Start for Texans Right Away?

Houston Texans wide receiver Jayden Higgins was selected with the No. 34 overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft after an outstanding collegiate season at Iowa State. As a senior, he tallied 87 receptions for 1,183 yards and nine touchdowns despite sharing the field with Texans third-round pick Jaylin Noel. Texans reporter Mike Jones of […]


Sauce Gardner Agrees to $120.4 Million Contract Extension

The New York Jets are signing All-Pro cornerback Sauce Gardner to a four-year, $120.4 million contract extension, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. The new deal that includes a $30.1 million average salary makes the 24-year-old the highest-paid cornerback in NFL history. Since being selected with the No. 4 overall pick in the 2022 NFL […]


Jauan Jennings Seeking New Deal or Trade From 49ers

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings wants a new contract or to be traded heading into the 2025 NFL season. Jennings, who is set to make $7.5 million in the last year of his current deal, racked up career highs in receptions (77), receiving yards (975), and receiving touchdowns (six) a season ago. The […]


Christian Barmore "Dominant" this Spring

New England Patriots defensive lineman Christian Barmore played in just four games during the 2024 campaign after experiencing blood clots. The former second-round pick out of Alabama in 2021 was entering his first season following a four-year, $83 million contract, and his NFL future was up in the air just eight months ago. However, he […]


Nick Nash Unlikely to Make Falcons Active Roster

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Nick Nash went unselected in the 2025 NFL Draft despite leading all college wideouts in receptions (104), receiving yards (1,382), and receiving touchdowns (16). The Falcons added him as a priority undrafted free agent, and even though he has made some play this offseason, he's still likely on the outside of […]


Lane Johnson in No Rush To Retire

Philadelphia Eagles All-Pro and likely future Hall of Fame offensive tackle Lane Johnson is entering his 13th NFL campaign since being selected in the first round of the 2013 NFL Draft out of Oklahoma. The 35-year-old is one of the longest-tenured players in Eagles history, and his six Pro Bowls and five All-Pro selections demonstrate […]


Blake Corum has "Gotten His Speed Back"

Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum was a popular fantasy sleeper heading into last season after being selected in the third round of the 2024 NFL Draft out of Michigan. However, the 24-year-old failed to make an impact, logging just 58 carries for 207 yards and failing to score a touchdown. Corum did not […]


Jarquez Hunter Picking Up Rams Offense Quickly

Los Angeles Rams running back Jarquez Hunter was a fourth-round selection in the 2025 NFL Draft after a fantastic final season at Auburn. This offseason, the Rams coaching staff is pleased with his attention to detail and the way he has picked up the team's playbook. "He's a young man that's very focused on making […]


Christian Kirk the No. 2 WR in Houston?

Houston Texans wide receiver Christian Kirk was dealt from the division rival Jacksonville Jaguars for a late-round NFL Draft pick this offseason. The 28-year-old had a fantastic first season with Jacksonville in 2022, but injuries and offensive woes limited his production in 2023 and 2024. Last year, he tallied just 27 receptions for 379 yards […]


Jerome Ford the Likely Starter for Cleveland to Begin 2025

According to Zac Jackson of The Athletic, Cleveland Browns veteran running back Jerome Ford is likely to open the 2025 season in the RB1 role. The team just selected former Ohio State running back Quinshon Judkins and former Tennessee running back Dylan Sampson in the first four rounds of the 2025 NFL Draft, so this […]


Chig Okonkwo "Poised" for Best Season of Career

Tennessee Titans tight end Chig Okonkwo has flashed on occasion during his three-year NFL career, but tight ends often take time to develop, and Tennessee's offense has been well below league average since the start of the 2022 campaign. The former fourth-round pick out of Maryland has tallied 138 receptions (193 targets) for 1,457 yards […]


Falcons High on Xavier Watts

The Atlanta Falcons selected former Notre Dame safety Xavier Watts in the third round of the 2025 NFL Draft, and many believed he could have been an early Day 2 pick after collecting 13 interceptions, 18 pass deflections, and two fumble recoveries in his final two collegiate seasons. Heading into his rookie campaign, it's safe […]


Xavier Restrepo Training With Star Wideouts

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Xavier Restrepo is working out with NFL star pass-catchers Ja'Marr Chase, Tyreek Hill, Jaxon Smith-Njigba, and more at Chad Johnson's Wideout Workshop this week. The undrafted free agent out of Miami has impressed this offseason while catching passes from his college quarterback, Cam Ward, and learning from some of the best […]


Tristan Wirfs Undergoes Knee Surgery, Likely to Miss Start of Season

Tampa Bay Buccaneers left tackle Tristan Wirfs (knee) underwent arthroscopic surgery on his right knee and is expected to begin the 2025 campaign on the PUP (Physically Unable to Perform) list. This is a significant development for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' offense early in the season, as being placed on the PUP list requires a […]


Laken Tomlinson Confident in Texans Offensive Line

Houston Texans veteran offensive lineman Laken Tomlinson signed a one-year, $4.25 million deal to join the organization this offseason, and Houston's offensive line is a significant question mark in 2025. After protecting C.J. Stroud well in his rookie campaign, the front five fell apart in 2024, leading to constant pressure for Stroud and a lack […]


J.K. Dobbins the Starter in Denver?

According to Broncos beat writer Cody Roark of Mike High Sports, recently acquired running back J.K. Dobbins "will likely be the starter" to open the 2025 campaign. Dobbins came back from a brutal run of injuries, including a torn Achilles, to rush for 905 yards and nine touchdowns for the Los Angeles Chargers last season. […]


Seahawks Release JT Woods

The Seattle Seahawks released defensive back JT Woods on Monday, according to NFL.com. Woods, a former third-round selection in the 2022 NFL Draft out of Baylor, played his first two seasons with the Los Angeles Chargers, collecting eight tackles in 13 games. He has not appeared in a regular-season or postseason contest since 2023 but […]


Darren Waller Trade to Miami Becomes Official

The Miami Dolphins have officially agreed to send a 2026 sixth-round draft selection in exchange for former New York Giants tight end Darren Waller and a conditional 2027 seventh-round pick, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. This trade seemingly came out of nowhere, directly following the announcement that Miami had traded Pro Bowl tight end Jonnu […]


Dolphins Interested in Asante Samuel Jr.

The Miami Dolphins have reached out to free-agent cornerback Asante Samuel Jr., according to the Miami Herald. The organization dealt All-Pro cornerback Jalen Ramsey to the Pittsburgh Steelers in exchange for All-Pro and former Dolphins safety Minkah Fitzpatrick last week, so they are in the market for a veteran corner. Samuel was a second-round pick […]


Nyheim Hines Seeking Return to NFL

Veteran free-agent running back Nyheim Hines, who suffered a torn ACL in a jet-ski accident nearly two years ago, is seeking a return to the NFL, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. The former fourth-round pick by the Indianapolis Colts in 2018 out of NC State posted 1,202 rushing yards, 1,778 receiving yards, and 18 total […]


Dak Prescott Expects to be Full-Go for Training Camp

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott (hamstring) said he will be full-go in training camp, pending a final check-in with team doctors following a significant hamstring injury that cost him nine missed games in 2024. The veteran, entering his 10th NFL season, participated in all drills this offseason and should be more than ready to go […]
