Who Should I Start? Cooper Rush or Tommy Devito

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.

New York Giants quarterback Tommy Devito will make his 2024 debut in Week 12 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers following the team's Week 11 bye. DeVito inherits the starting role after the release of Daniel Jones and steps into a favorable matchup against the league's worst defense against fantasy quarterbacks. The Buccaneers have allowed 23.08 fantasy points per game to opposing QBs (32nd in the NFL) and rank 30th against the pass, giving up 264.1 passing yards and 20 touchdowns this season. While DeVito has yet to play in 2024, his 2023 stats include eight passing TDs and 195 rushing yards in nine games, showcasing dual-threat upside. Facing a struggling Bucs defense, DeVito is a high-risk but intriguing streaming option.
