Who Should I Start? Derek Carr or Josh Allen

Friday, June 6, 12:23 PM

Former New Orleans Saints and Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Derek Carr (shoulder) made a surprising decision to hang up his cleats and retire from the NFL this offseason. "That part was tough because I didn't want to have surgery and just sit there and it sounds crazy but just take the Saints money," Carr said. He had two seasons left on the four-year, $150 million deal he signed with the Saints in 2023, although he gave up the $30 million salary he was set to earn in 2025. The four-time Pro Bowler was dealing with a right-shoulder injury that was going to require surgery and leave his availability uncertain for the start of the regular season this fall. Carr said the Saints wanted him to keep playing, but he couldn't commit to another season. With Carr now gone, the Saints will have a QB competition this summer, primarily between rookie second-rounder Tyler Shough and Spencer Rattler.

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen has averaged 23.7 fantasy points per game this season, sitting atop the rankings as he heads into a Week 10 matchup with the Dolphins. When Allen last faced Miami in Week 3, he posted 213 passing yards with three touchdowns. He added 25 more rushing yards. The former Wyoming star is coming off a dominant offensive performance against a top-flight Kansas City Chiefs defense in Week 9, where he posted 273 yards passing with three touchdowns (one passing, and two rushing). The Bills offense has been unstoppable following their bye week, and should continue to soar this week.
