Who Should I Start? Anthony Richardson Sr. or Caleb Williams

Friday, August 29, 10:14 PM

According to Jeff Howe of The Athletic, teams around the National Football League "aren't tripping over themselves" to trade for Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson Sr. The Colts have already gone on record by stating the club isn't looking to move him. However, even if Richardson was on the block, most teams wouldn't be interested, considering he'd likely be joining as a backup. In addition, the signal-caller certainly needs more time to develop. Richardson hasn't done much since entering the league as the No. 4 overall pick in the 2023 Draft. His only positive attribute is seemingly as a runner. On the other hand, he has struggled throwing the ball, tossing for 2,391 yards, 11 touchdowns, and 13 picks while completing 50.6% of his attempts. To make matters worse, Richardson was limited to 15 games in his first two seasons. With Daniel Jones under center in Indianapolis, Richardson's value can't get any lower for those participating in redraft formats, although he's still worth stashing in dynasty setups in case he somehow turns things around moving forward.

Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams went 19-for-30 passing for 207 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception in the 52-21 blowout loss in Week 2 against the Detroit Lions on Sunday. Williams added five carries for 27 yards and was also sacked four times for a loss of 29 yards. The 23-year-old former first overall pick wasn't terrible in this one, but the Bears' defense really gave them no chance. Both of Williams' touchdown passes went to second-year wideout Rome Odunze, who is quickly becoming his favorite target early in 2025. Williams hasn't done anything yet to turn the heads of fantasy managers, but he should remain a decent QB2 with upside in head coach Ben Johnson's system. He'll have a prime opportunity for a QB1 performance in Week 3 versus a Dallas Cowboys defense that has allowed the second-most fantasy points to the position through two weeks.
