Who Should I Start? Brian Hoyer or Kenny Pickett

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 Kenny Pickett completed 10 of 15 passes for 143 yards and a touchdown in the team's dominant 41-7 win over the Dallas Cowboys. He added three rushing attempts for three yards and a rushing touchdown before exiting the game in the third quarter with a rib injury. Pickett's fantasy output was decent thanks to Dallas providing open gaps throughout the game; however, he finished near the bottom of quarterbacks this week. After his exit, backup Tanner McKee threw two touchdown passes to seal the victory. Heading into Week 18 against the New York Giants, the Eagles will hope Jalen Hurts clears concussion protocol and returns under center to lead the team into the postseason.
