Fantasy Football Today: Five quarterback regression candidates for 2024 you need to know before your drafts

The 2024 Fantasy Football season is on its way and we’re ramping up content over at Fantasy Football Today. One of my personal favorite offseason shows is always the Regression Candidates show.
