Who Should I Start? Carson Wentz or Jordan Love

Monday, October 27, 5:37 PM

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Carson Wentz (shoulder) will undergo season-ending surgery on his left shoulder and will be placed on Injured Reserve, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. To fill Wentz's spot on the active 53-man roster, the Vikings claimed tight end Ben Sims on waivers from the division-rival Green Bay Packers. The 32-year-old Wentz started the team's last five games with J.J. McCarthy working his way back from a high-ankle sprain that he suffered in the Week 2 loss to the Atlanta Falcons. Wentz was in undeniable pain every time he was hit last Thursday night's loss to the Los Angeles Chargers, and now he won't play again this year. There were questions as to whether McCarthy would be ready to play in Week 9 against the division-rival Detroit Lions, but now that Wentz is out, the Vikes will be left with Max Brosmer if McCarthy isn't cleared to start this Sunday. Wentz finishes his 10th year in the NFL with 1,216 passing yards, six touchdowns, and five interceptions in his five starts.

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love was masterful in a 31-24 win over the Detroit Lions on Thanksgiving, completing 18 of 30 passes for 234 yards and four touchdowns, while adding five carries for four yards. Love finished the game with a 95.0 QBR, which is the sixth-highest single-game performance by a quarterback this season, per ESPN. After throwing for just two touchdowns in his last four games combined, the 27-year-old doubled that mark on Thursday with the third four-touchdown game of his career and first since Week 6 of last season. Love and the Green Bay passing attack will look to keep things rolling in Week 14 as they have another key divisional game against the division-leading Chicago Bears.
