Who Should I Start? Cooper Rush or Noah Fant

Friday, November 22, 1:02 PM

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Cooper Rush has struggled to get the offense moving in his two starts, leaving the door open for quarterback Trey Lance to potentially get some playing time in the coming weeks. Rush did throw for 354 yards on 55 pass attempts last week given the nature of the game, but most of his fantasy production came in garbage time. If Dallas is blown out again like they are projected to be, Rush may cede those late-game snaps to Lance. Rush also may be without his top two pass-catchers, with CeeDee Lamb (back, foot) missing Thursday's practice and Jake Ferguson (concussion) trending towards missing. Dallas takes on Washington on Sunday and even though it is a solid matchup for opposing quarterbacks, Rush should be avoided.

According to Seattle Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald, tight end Noah Fant (groin) is "trending well" regarding his potential availability for the Week 12 meeting with the Arizona Cardinals. The 27-year-old, who missed the Seahawks' last two games, didn't practice on Friday. But he logged a limited session on Thursday before participating in full on Friday. For now, he's questionable, although the team will update his status on Saturday. Fant has struggled throughout the 2024-25 campaign, amassing only 27 catches for 285 yards. He also hasn't found the end zone. If he plays, he's not a logical option for fantasy managers. But if Fant remains out on Sunday, AJ Barner would presumably take his spot in the lineup. However, the rookie isn't a much safer fantasy option.
