Retained by Buffalo
The Bills signed Barkley to a reserve/future contract Monday, Chris Brown of the team's official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Barkley signed a one-year contract with the Bills in March, though he ultimately spent the entire season with the team's practice squad. The 32-year-old last appeared in a game during the 2020 campaign during his previous three-year stint with Buffalo. Barkley now will stick with the team once again heading into this offseason, and he could vie for the No. 2 quarterback spot ahead of the 2023 campaign.

Juan Carlos Blanco checks in with the latest on the Week 10 status of Josh Allen and several other big names as of early Sunday morning.

Josh Allen and Stefon Diggs headline the Bills offense, but this roster also features other valuable skill-position talent to be fantasy relevant across the board.

Jonathan Taylor gets a home game against the Jaguars this week and tops the RB and Flex rankings this week.

The Titans offense is centered around the Derrick Henry show, but Julio Jones' arrival means more fun will be had by Ryan Tannehill, A.J. Brown and company.

Barkley has managed to carve out a career for himself as a backup quarterback since being drafted out of USC in 2013. He never has had much of a chance to show what he can do in extended time, but he has started seven games as a pro, yielding around 230 yards passing and 1.7 touchdowns per game. Serviceable veteran backup? Sure, but his biggest weakness is the biggest one you can have -- he turns the ball over. In 342 career pass attempts, he's accounted for 10 touchdowns and 21 interceptions. And last year it was zero TDs and three picks, plus two lost fumbles. Now he's been forced into battle with fifth-round draft pick Jake Fromm on a team that has not rostered three quarterbacks under current leadership (since 2017). A potential short offseason could work in Barkley's favor considering he's well familiar with Buffalo's offense while Fromm is not.
