Who Should I Start? Brian Hoyer or Lamar Jackson

Sunday, October 1, 8:21 AM

Las Vegas Raiders rookie quarterback Aidan O'Connell is expected to draw the start in Week 4 versus the Los Angeles Chargers, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. With Jimmy Garoppolo (concussion) ruled out, the expectation was that veteran Brian Hoyer would handle quarterback duties on Sunday. Instead, it'll be the Purdue product making his NFL debut. The 25-year-old flashed potential in the preseason, but regular-season defenses are a whole new beast. He's not on the fantasy radar, and the likes of Davante Adams, Josh Jacobs, and Jakobi Meyers will see their fantasy value take a hit. On the other hand, the Chargers' defense becomes a solid streamer.

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson posted a huge game on the ground during the 22-19 loss to the Colts. The former MVP ended the game with 101 yards and two touchdowns on 14 carries while completing 22 of his 31 throws for 202 yards. The lack of pass protection didn't allow for many scoring opportunities through the air but Jackson salvaged his week by finding running room more often than not. With Justice Hill (foot) out and Gus Edwards (concussion) leaving early, Jackson was the main beneficiary when it came to running the ball. In Week 4, they'll face the toughest defense they've seen so far in the Cleveland Browns.
