Former New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones is signing with the Minnesota Vikings, according to NFL insider Ari Meirov. The former No. 6 overall pick in the 2019 NFL Draft lands with Kevin O'Connell following his abrupt release from New York. Jones will have the chance to sit behind Sam Darnold in hopes of regaining a starting job in the near future. Jones started 69 games for the Giants, racking up a 24-44-1 record behind 14,582 passing yards, 70 passing touchdowns, and 47 interceptions. He rushed for 2,179 yards and 15 scores. The 27-year-old is not on the fantasy football radar for now, but he's worth stashing in deep Superflex or two-QB leagues. If Darnold were to miss time, Jones would enter an offense with stud pass-catchers, and he still has a little bit of juice as a runner.

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy is in Miami for a Week 16 contest against the Dolphins. In Week 15's Thursday night game with San Francisco clinging to playoff hopes against the Rams, Purdy did not play well, completing 14-of-31 passes for 142 yards, no touchdowns, an interception, and three yards rushing. The weather in Miami is expected to be mild and dry, which is ideal for Purdy as he has struggled mightily in precipitation, but that's where the good news ends. Jalen Ramsey and the Dolphins' pass defense have allowed the NFL's fewest fantasy points per game to quarterbacks (13.4). Purdy is the 12th-ranked fantasy quarterback in points per game this season, and projections this week are congruent with that number. Consider Purdy a suboptimal play on the QB1/QB2 fence for the fantasy playoffs.
Still trying to decide between Jones and Purdy? Check on the latest news to make sure both players are active and healthy. Our PPR projections show that Daniel Jones is projected to score 0.0 points this week while Brock Purdy is projected to score 21.3 points.
