Who Should I Start? Aaron Rodgers or Malik Willis

Tuesday, July 23, 11:56 PM

New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers expressed uncertainty on his player future beyond the 2024 season while on Pardon My Take on Tuesday. When asked how many more years he will play in the NFL, Rodgers said, "I don't know. This one, for sure. I'd like to do -- I wanted to do two good ones and give us a chance to retire a Jet. Win two Super Bowls." The 40-year-old's willingness to play beyond the 2024 season will likely come down to how this season goes and how well he plays while coming off a torn left Achilles in Week 1 of 2023. The odds of Rodgers having another MVP-like season at this point in his career are unlikely, but if anything can do it, it would be him. He'll have plenty of weapons around him on offense as he attempts a successful return from a serious injury, but fantasy managers need to temper their expectations and treat him as more of a low-end QB2.

Tennessee Titans quarterback Malik Willis will see at least some playing time in Week 8 against the Atlanta Falcons if Ryan Tannehill (ankle) is unavailable. Tannehill suffered a high-ankle sprain in the Week 6 loss to the Baltimore Ravens and is not practicing to begin the week. Head coach Mike Vrabel said both Willis and rookie Will Levis will play on Sunday if Tannehill is ruled out. Obviously, neither signal-caller is on the fantasy radar given the circumstances, but both are worth picking up in deep superflex or two-QB leagues. Willis has completed just 35 of his 66 passing attempts for 350 yards, zero touchdowns, and three interceptions over the last two seasons. Since Levis was selected in the second round of the 2023 NFL Draft, he is likely the favorite to take over the full-time job if Tannehill is out for a while or if the Titans decide to turn the offense over to a young signal-caller.
