Who Should I Start? Carson Wentz or Jalen Hurts

Tuesday, July 9, 4:08 PM

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Carson Wentz signed with the organization this offseason after spending the last few months of the 2023 season with the Los Angeles Rams. The former No. 2 overall pick in the 2016 NFL Draft is obviously behind Patrick Mahomes on the depth chart, but Wentz working with Andy Reid could be a great thing for his career. "It was good to get him in this position and if he has an opportunity to play, he has an opportunity to play, Reid said. "Carson looks sharp. He's picking things up fast, smart guy, and he fits in well. Seems like a heck of a person, and he's good in that [quarterback] room." While Mahomes has remained healthy for most of his career, Wentz could be a high-end backup quarterback to stash in deep Superflex and two-QB leagues. The Chiefs now have plenty of weapons, and if anyone can dial up a game plan that leads to solid production from Wentz, it's Reid.

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts threw for 108 yards and two touchdowns off 14-for-21 passing in Sunday's 22-16 win over the Carolina Panthers. He added eight carries for 59 yards and a touchdown. The Eagles were expected to cruise to an easy victory over the Panthers in Week 14. However, despite earning the win, that wasn't the case, with Hurts facing constant pressure all afternoon. Still, his performance was good enough to satisfy fantasy managers. With Philadelphia sniffing another postseason berth, Hurts and company will look for another win in the Week 15 intrastate showdown with the Pittsburgh Steelers.
