Who Should I Start? Baker Mayfield or Michael Wilson

Friday, August 1, 8:42 AM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield (hand) will not practice on Friday due to a hand injury. Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network reported that the quarterback suffered a contusion on his throwing hand during Thursday's session. Mayfield has already undergone scans, but has appeared to have avoided significant injury. For now, fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day. As a result, the Buccaneers will likely manage his workload for the next few days to ensure he is fully healthy for the regular season. Last season, Mayfield enjoyed a career year as he threw for 4,500 yards and 16 passing scores. Even though his offensive coordinator, Liam Coen, is now in Jacksonville. Mayfield remains a solid QB1 in all leagues as the Buccaneers brought in former Ohio State standout Emeka Egbuka in the first round of the draft to further strengthen an elite WR room.

According to Theo Mackie, Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson (head) and safety Budda Baker (shin) collided with each other during Friday's practice. This resulted in both players exiting early during practice. Baker reportedly tried to talk his way into staying in, but ultimately headed to the sideline. Wilson exited the field with the training staff and figures to undergo further testing. It seems like both players have avoided major injuries, but fantasy managers should check back for another update.
