Who Should I Start? Aaron Rodgers or Anthony Richardson

During his introductory press conference, New York Jets head coach Aaron Glenn was cryptic regarding quarterback Aaron Rodgers and his future with the team. "We've already [had] communication with [him]," said Glenn. "As we continue to look at the roster, we'll make decisions accordingly, and that's with a number of people on the team." Rodgers noted a few weeks ago that he needs some time away to reflect, but he did appear open to returning to the Jets if they'd have him. Whether the 41-year-old will be back with the team remains to be seen, but their new head coach is on record stating he plans to meet with the veteran QB soon and "will definitely come up with a decision much sooner than later. I don't wanna drag this out." Hopefully, Rodgers is of the same sentiment.

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson, the fourth overall pick in 2023, dealt with more injuries in his second NFL season in 2024 and did nothing to solidify himself as the long-term franchise QB in Indy. Richardson regressed as a passer, with his completion percentage dropping more than 11% points from his rookie year. In addition, his interceptions went up and there were questions about his off-field preparation, which led to a two-game benching in the middle of the year. The good news is that Richardson is healthy this offseason after missing the last two games of the year with a back injury, and he's already resumed throwing. His work this offseason with include refining his throws and throwing with more touch. Richardson will also be focusing on overall technique and plans to work with biometric expert Chris Hess. If Richardson can stay healthy and improves his footwork and throwing mechanics, he absolutely has QB1 upside in fantasy.
