Who Should I Start? Brian Hoyer or Jalen Hurts

Friday, March 8, 8:37 PM

According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the Raiders parted ways with quarterback Brian Hoyer. The journeyman signal-caller has bounced around the league over the year. He's appeared in 79 regular season games, tossing for 10,899 yards and 53 touchdowns (37 picks) off 59.3% passing. He hasn't done much in the last few seasons, and he finished the 2023-24 campaign by throwing for just 231 yards, along with two picks. At any rate, there could be a market for Hoyer, who has established himself as a quality backup during his career. But even if the 38-year-old finds a new team, that doesn't mean he'll draw attention from managers in fantasy drafts heading into the new season.

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts completed 24 of his 33 pass attempts for 283 yards, one touchdown, and one interception during Thursday's Week 6 loss to the New York Giants. He also added seven carries for 13 rushing yards and one rushing touchdown. Hurts set a season high in passing yards but also threw his first turnover of the year -- both of which are somewhat expected when a low passing volume quarterback suddenly has to throw the ball 33 times. The Eagles have now lost two straight games, and some of Hurts' passing struggles could be a reason why. His schedule doesn't get any easier as he takes on a talented, well-coached Vikings defense in Week 7.
