Who Should I Start? Aaron Rodgers or Jameis Winston

Saturday, September 16, 9:25 PM

According to NFL Media's Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero, New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers (Achilles) hopes to return in time for the postseason, assuming the team makes it that far. The veteran signal-caller, who was traded to New York during the offseason, ruptured his Achilles only four snaps into his tenure with the Jets. However, after it appeared all was lost, Rodgers underwent an "innovative" procedure on Wednesday known as a "Speed Bridge," performed by "renowned orthopedic surgeon" Dr. Neal ElAttrache. While the news doesn't mean much for fantasy managers regarding the 2023-24 campaign, it likely means that Rodgers isn't planning on calling it quits anytime soon. It's also a good sign concerning his availability for OTAs and training camp next offseason. For now, Zach Wilson is expected to handle things under center moving ahead.

New Orleans Saints quarterback Jameis Winston (wrist) is not listed on the team's injury report. The former first-overall pick sustained the injury during the Saints' final preseason game against Houston. He now figures to serve as the primary backup for starter Derek Carr. Third-string quarterback Jake Haener was hit with a six-game suspension earlier this week and Taysom Hill was recently designated as a quarterback instead of a tight end.
