Who Should I Start? Aaron Rodgers or Mac Jones

Saturday, December 13, 11:30 AM

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers is coming off his highest passing yardage total of the season in Week 14 and will take on the Miami Dolphins at home on Monday Night Football. Miami enters on a hot streak, having won four straight games while limiting opposing quarterbacks to the 10th-fewest fantasy points per contest over that span. That said, the Dolphins' run defense has been even more formidable than their pass defense. With Pittsburgh struggling to establish the ground game lately, the Steelers could be forced to lean more heavily on Rodgers' arm. Still, while this matchup is expected to be competitive, it is not projected to be particularly high-scoring, which caps the 41-year-old's fantasy upside. Fantasy managers should avoid relying on Rodgers as anything more than a low-end QB2 in superflex formats in Week 15.

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Mac Jones will head back to the bench ahead of the Week 11 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. Jones has started in each of the last six games while Brock Purdy (toe) was sidelined. Now, Purdy is ready to play, so Jones will return to being the backup. However, Jones was impressive during his time as the starter. He threw for 2,151 yards with 13 touchdowns and six interceptions in eight games. It sounds like this solid play has made him a prime trade candidate for the 2026 season. Jones is still under control with the organization after signing a two-year, seven million deal with the organization this offseason. Purdy is viewed as the franchise quarterback in San Francisco, so moving Jones makes sense. Given his play this season, Jones should draw some interest in the trade market. This is something to monitor during the offseason.
