Who Should I Start? Aaron Rodgers or Russell Wilson

Friday, November 7, 10:55 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has been steady this season, ranking fourth among all signal-callers in passing touchdowns heading into a Week 10 away matchup with the Los Angeles Chargers. The Chargers surrender the fourth-fewest fantasy points per game to opposing quarterbacks and could pose Rodgers' toughest challenge yet. On the other side, however, Pittsburgh's defense has been inconsistent, allowing over 30 points in half of its games. If Los Angeles can keep rolling offensively, Rodgers should see enough passing volume to deliver for fantasy purposes. He's not the safest streaming option this week, but he can be started in a pinch and viewed as a low-end QB2 on Sunday night.

According to NFL Media's Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo, New York Giants quarterback Russell Wilson "is expected to emerge as a trade candidate" ahead of the deadline. With the G-Men winless through the first three games of the season, head coach Brian Daboll made the call to bench Wilson heading into the Week 4 meeting with the Los Angeles Chargers. In his place, Jaxson Dart will get the start. Despite the demotion, Wilson vowed to "respond" the right way by serving as a mentor to the rookie. Without question, his best days are behind him. However, the 36-year-old could find himself in a more favorable situation, so fantasy managers in Superflex setups with room on the roster may want to consider stashing him. Wilson started three games this season, throwing for 778 yards, three touchdowns, and three picks while completing a career-low 59.1% of his attempts.
