Who Should I Start? Davis Mills or Tanner McKee

Thursday, December 14, 1:19 PM

Signs are pointing to Houston Texans quarterback Davis Mills starting in Week 15 against the Tennessee Titans on Sunday with rookie C.J. Stroud (concussion) still in the league's concussion protocol on Thursday. Mills entered for a concussed Stroud in the Week 14 loss to the New York Jets and went only 1-for-5 for four yards in the fourth quarter. The 25-year-old is now likely to make his first start of 2023 this weekend, and he could be missing top wideout Nico Collins, who injured his calf last Sunday. Mills made 26 starts for the Texans the previous two seasons and completed 63.6% of his 873 attempts for 5,782 yards, 33 touchdowns and 25 interceptions in that span. Mills has experience as a starter but should only be considered a low-end QB2 streamer in superflex leagues against the Titans in Week 15.

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Tanner McKee completed 19-of-34 passes for 158 yards, adding one carry for five yards, during the team's 27-13 preseason loss to the Indianapolis Colts. Marcus Mariota was only given one series this week, completing one deep pass for 21 yards. It seems as though the Eagles wanted to provide McKee with as much of a chance to win them over and take the backup job from the veteran as possible, but this was not a particularly outstanding performance overall. With that said, the rookie has looked better than Mariota this preseason, so there is a chance he makes the final 53-man roster. If cut, the Eagles will look to stash the 23-year-old on their practice squad.
