Who Should I Start? Daniel Jones or Tua Tagovailoa

Saturday, November 1, 9:32 AM

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Daniel Jones continued his bid for comeback player of the year in a Week 8 win over the Tennessee Titans. Jones completed 21 of 29 passes for 272 yards and three touchdowns in the 38-14 win. Jones has now thrown for 2,062 yards, 13 touchdowns, and three interceptions while adding four rushing touchdowns for the Colts this season. The veteran quarterback will look to keep it going in a Week 9 road matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Pittsburgh's defense has really struggled against the pass this season, allowing the second-most fantasy points per game to the quarterback position in seven games. Jones remains a mid-range QB1 in fantasy and should be locked into starting lineups in most fantasy leagues heading into Week 9.

According to NFL Media's Ian Rapoport, Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa could be benched "at some point" this season. While Rapoport added that his "play would have to really fall off" for that to happen, a possible demotion is "not off the table." The 27-year-old has thrown for 1,779 yards, 15 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions during the 2025 campaign. Although Tagovailoa has had at least a few decent fantasy showings this season, he has struggled on several occasions. For now, the signal-caller will remain under center. However, it appears he's on a short leash, so he'll need to play well in upcoming meetings with the Buffalo Bills and Washington Commanders. If not, Zach Wilson or Quinn Ewers may claim the top spot on the depth chart.
