Who Should I Start? Carson Wentz or Jayden Daniels

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.

Washington Commanders rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels went 25-for-30 with 206 passing yards, 34 rushing yards, an interception, and four total scores in their Week 13 victory over the Tennessee Titans. The Commanders got out to an early 21-point lead in the opening quarter. Brian Robinson Jr. scored on the opening drive, while Daniels added a rushing score and a TD pass to Terry McLaurin later in that frame. Then, in the second quarter, he found McLaurin in the end zone for the second time today. Daniels capped off his impressive outing with his fourth touchdown, this time on a pass to tight end Zach Ertz. With the Commanders in the driver's seat through most of the afternoon, the LSU product did not need to push the ball downfield quite often. However, he was dominant in the red zone and was able to still enjoy a strong fantasy showing. Daniels and the Commanders will get a much-needed bye week next weekend and set their sights on a Week 15 tilt in the Big Easy against the Saints.
