Who Should I Start? Aaron Rodgers or Evan Engram

Tuesday, October 21, 1:35 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers turned back the clock with four touchdown passes last Thursday night in a loss to the Cincinnati Bengals, and now he'll be turning his focus on Sunday night in Week 8 to beating his former team, the Green Bay Packers. If Rodgers beats Green Bay, he would join Brett Favre, Tom Brady, Drew Brees, and Peyton Manning as the only QBs in NFL history to have beaten all 32 teams. Right now, Rodgers is one of seven QBs with wins over 31 franchises. Through seven weeks, the 41-year-old future Hall of Famer sits as the QB17 in average points per game. He's gone 118-for-172 passing for 1,270 yards, 14 touchdowns, and five interceptions in his six games played in his first year in the Steel City. Coming off his big Week 7 performance against Cincy, Rodgers should draw some looks off the waiver wire in single-QB leagues for his revenge game against Green Bay with six teams on bye in Week 8.

Denver Broncos tight end Evan Engram got off to an inauspicious start to his Broncos tenure this year with four catches for only 33 yards in the first two weeks, and then he missed the Week 3 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers with a back injury. Head coach Sean Payton kept talking up Engram in the offseason as a key weapon in the offense, but there was no evidence to back that up early on. The 31-year-old might be starting to come around for fantasy managers, though, as he has back-to-back five-catch, 42-yard performances in Weeks 6 and 7, and he also scored for the first time in Week 5 against the Philadelphia Eagles. Right now, Engram is only rostered in 57% of Yahoo fantasy leagues. With six teams on bye in Week 8, he should be on your radar this week if you're in need of a TE, especially in a matchup this Sunday against a Dallas Cowboys defense that has been friendly to opposing passing attacks this year.
