Who Should I Start? Daniel Jones or Jalen Hurts

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.

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts enters Week 16 against the Washington Commanders fresh off one of his best passing performances of the season. In the Eagles' 27-13 win over the Steelers, Hurts completed 25-of-32 passes for 290 yards and two touchdowns while adding 45 rushing yards and another score. His 14 rushing touchdowns lead all quarterbacks this season, and his 290 passing yards marked his second-highest total of 2024. Washington's defense ranks fourth in passing yards allowed per game (189.6), but they've surrendered 23 passing touchdowns and struggle against mobile QBs. Hurts' dual-threat ability and consistent scoring upside keep him locked in as a high-end QB1. He'll look to add to his six-touchdown total over the past two games against the Commanders defense.
