Who Should I Start? Carson Wentz or Lamar Jackson

Sunday, August 24, 10:45 AM

Veteran quarterback Carson Wentz is headed to Minnesota, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. The Vikings acted quickly to reorganize their quarterback ranks on Sunday, also sending Sam Howell to the Philadelphia Eagles in a separate transaction. The Vikings weren't satisfied with their backup options throughout training camp and opted for Wentz instead, who figures to be J.J. McCarthy's primary backup. Most recently, Wentz served as the backup in Kansas City behind Patrick Mahomes.

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson completed 19 of his 29 pass attempts for 225 yards, four touchdowns, and zero interceptions during Sunday's Week 2 win over the Cleveland Browns. He only rushed twice in the victory, adding 13 yards on the ground. Although Jackson didn't use his legs much, that was simply a product of the passing attack working quite well and the defense playing a great game against the Browns. The quarterback's ability to make plays on the ground or through the air is what allows him to rank as a top fantasy option week in and week out. Now responsible for seven touchdowns and zero turnovers through two games, Jackson enters Week 3 against Detroit as a high-end QB1 in fantasy football.
