Who Should I Start? Brock Purdy or Caleb Williams

Wednesday, November 12, 4:57 PM

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said that quarterback Brock Purdy (toe) will have an "aggressive practice" on Wednesday with the goal of starting on Sunday against the Arizona Cardinals, according to David Lombardi of the San Francisco Standard. Purdy hasn't played in a game since aggravating his turf-toe injury during a Week 4 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. The 25-year-old has been a limited participant in practice recently, but he looks to be on track to make his return in Week 11 if all goes according to plan. Star running back Christian McCaffrey said Wednesday that "he looks like Brock," and noted that Purdy is running and throwing well at practice. Purdy's status will be closely monitored this week, and if he is able to return, he will rank as a low-end QB1 on Sunday against the Cardinals.

Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams completed 20 of his 36 pass attempts for 220 passing yards, one passing touchdown, and zero interceptions during Sunday's Week 10 win over the New York Giants. He also had 28 rushing yards and one rushing touchdown. Both of Williams' touchdowns came in the fourth quarter, capping off an impressive comeback win in messy weather at home. The 23-year-old did a good job spreading the ball around, and the Bears leaned on the passing attack more than expected, especially with Kyle Monangai and D'Andre Swift both healthy. Williams continues to rank as a solid fantasy QB1 in Week 11 against the Minnesota Vikings.
