Who Should I Start? Chris Oladokun or Adrian Martinez

Wednesday, December 24, 3:46 PM

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Chris Oladokun will now be the starting quarterback for the team heading into the last two games of the season. Kansas City lost Patrick Mahomes to an ACL tear in Week 15, and Gardner Minshew was the next man up in the QB room. Minshew started the game in Week 16 against the Tennessee Titans but left with a knee injury of his own, passing the torch to Oladokun. Oladokun performed well given the hand he was dealt, completing 11 of 16 pass attempts (69%) for 111 yards and rushing twice for seven yards. Last week's contest was the first time Oladokun had ever thrown a pass in an NFL game, so expect there to be some growing pains as he faces one of the toughest defenses in the league on Christmas. The Denver Broncos have allowed the fourth-fewest yards per game and fifth-fewest points per game this season while leading the league in sacks, so Oladokun will have his work cut out for him. The Chiefs quarterback will also have to compete without Rashee Rice and Tyquan Thornton, who were both placed on IR on Wednesday afternoon. Oladokun is ranked QB34 in our RotoBaller rankings, placing him dead-last. Oladokun should not be considered a fantasy option for Week 17

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Adrian Martinez has been elevated from the practice squad to the active roster ahead of the Week 2 matchup against the New Orleans Saints. Martinez was signed to the 49ers practice squad after failing to make the New York Jets initial 53-man roster. He wasn't expected to be anything more than a third or fourth string depth option. However, the 49ers are going to be without Brock Purdy (shoulder) and Kurtis Rourke (knee) for Sunday's game. That being said, Martinez will head to the active roster and be the backup to Mac Jones. There isn't fantasy value here with Martinez right now, but he's a name to watch if something happens to Jones.
