2023 Fantasy Outlook
There was no outlook written for Cade McNamara in 2023. Check out the latest news below for more on his current fantasy value.
Targeting full speed by June
Knee
March 26, 2024
Head coach Kirk Ferentz indicated Tuesday that he'd "like to think in June he'll (McNamara) be back to full speed," Eliot Clough of Rivals.com reports.
ANALYSIS
McNamara opened spring with a knee brace on his left knee, and it seems he'll likely be limited in some capacity throughout the spring session. However, it seems the senior should be healthy during the summer and should be full go when the Hawkeyes open fall camp.

2022 Fantasy Outlook
McNamara appears set to reprise his starting role after prevailing in Michigan’s de facto spring quarterback competition against sophomore J.J. McCarthy. McNamara did not put up staggering numbers in 2021, but he was an efficient game manager for the Wolverines, completing 64.2 percent of his passes for 2,576 yards and a 15-to-6 TD:INT ratio. The senior signal-caller attempted 327 passes last season, but he was routinely cycled out on situational downs for McCarthy, who provided a high-ceiling option at quarterback as both a rusher and an over-the-top passing threat. Michigan will likely continue to split quarterback snaps between McCarthy and McNamara, but the latter’s consistency as a passer combined with a solid returning cast of skill players should allow McNamara to be a safe, albeit limited, game manager for the Wolverines once again.
