Who Should I Start? Bryce Young or Sean Clifford

Saturday, December 13, 12:08 PM

Bryce Young led the Panthers to a shocking 31-28 upset win over the Los Angeles Rams in Week 13 before the bye. In that game, Young logged 22.5 fantasy points with three passing touchdowns. He also completed 15-of-20 attempts for 206 passing yards. Young is one of the more inconsistent QBs in the league this season. Through his last three games, he registered over 20 fantasy points twice. In his previous five starts, he finished with less than 11 fantasy points three times. Carolina will face the New Orleans Saints for the second time this year in Week 15. New Orleans ranks 11th in Fantasy Points Per Game allowed to QBs this season. In Week 10 against the Saints, Young finished with 124 passing yards and 2.6 fantasy points, his lowest total in a single game this season. Due to his inconsistency throughout the year and his performance vs. the Saints in the last matchup, Young cannot be trusted to help teams in the opening round of the fantasy football playoffs.

The Cincinnati Bengals have signed quarterback Sean Clifford to their practice squad. A 2023 fifth-round pick, Clifford spent his rookie season with the Green Bay Packers and has yet to attempt a pass in the NFL. With Joe Burrow (toe) sidelined for at least the next three months, Clifford joins Jake Browning and Mike White in the quarterback room. Browning is expected to start in Burrow's absence, while White and Clifford serve strictly as depth options. From a fantasy perspective, Clifford carries no value and should remain on the waiver wire.
