Who Should I Start? Daniel Jones or Jordan Love

Tuesday, December 9, 4:25 PM

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Daniel Jones (Achilles) was placed on Injured Reserve on Tuesday after suffering a season-ending torn Achilles in Sunday's loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. Head coach Shane Steichen said Jones is expected to undergo surgery "within the week." It's a devastating injury for Jones and the Colts after an incredible start to his tenure in Indianapolis. The 28-year-old was on pace for a career-best season, completing 68% of his passes for 3,101 yards, 19 touchdowns, and eight interceptions while adding 45 carries for 164 yards and five touchdowns on the ground. With rookie quarterback Riley Leonard (knee) considered week-to-week with a PCL sprain and Anthony Richardson Sr. (eye) on Injured Reserve, the Colts signed 44-year-old Philip Rivers to their practice squad on Tuesday. Rivers is expected to be the starter eventually, but it's to be determined if he or Brett Rypien will start in a tough Week 15 matchup on the road against the Seattle Seahawks.

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love had a highly efficient day in his team's Week 14 win over the Chicago Bears, completing 17 of 25 pass attempts for 234 yards, three touchdowns, and one interception. The 27-year-old's 9.4 yards per pass attempt against Chicago was his best single-game mark since Week 8. Love is also on a touchdown-throwing tear, as he's now thrown for seven scores over the last two weeks. Across 13 games overall, Love has thrown for 3,028 yards, 22 touchdowns, and four picks. While Green Bay prefers to play a run-heavy offensive style, Love's ability to be efficient gives him a chance at solid fantasy production every week. He profiles as a borderline fantasy QB1 heading into a difficult Week 15 matchup on the road against the Denver Broncos.
