Who Should I Start? Dorian Thompson-Robinson or Drake Maye

Sunday, August 24, 4:33 PM

The Philadelphia Eagles have released third-year quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson. Thompson-Robinson was acquired via trade and a 5th-round pick in a deal that sent Kenny Pickett to the Browns in March. The Eagles traded for Sam Howell earlier on Sunday, and with fellow third-year quarterback Tanner McKee (thumb) looking like one of the stars of this year's preseason, Thompson-Robinson became expendable. McKee is dealing with a fractured thumb and his status for Week 1 is in doubt. The Eagles' backup quarterback job has been extremely fantasy relevant of late, with Pro Bowler Jalen Hurts missing late-season action in two of the past three seasons. With a plentitude of offensive weapons at their disposal, whoever can hold the job between McKee and Howell will be worth stashing in deep Superflex and dynasty leagues.

New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye played quite well during his last meeting against the Buffalo Bills, and he'll get another opportunity to face off against the division rival on Sunday in Week 15. Last time he faced the Bills, Maye completed 22 of his 30 pass attempts for 273 passing yards. He rushed for 12 yards and took four sacks. The former No. 3 pick played turnover-free football in that Week 5 contest, but he also was held without a touchdown for the first and only time this season. He should have more fantasy success this time around while also keeping New England in a competitive battle against the Bills. Buffalo's defense has allowed the 10th-most fantasy points to quarterbacks in 2025, and they allowed Joe Burrow to throw for 284 yards and four touchdowns last weekend. Maye remains in the mix as a high-end fantasy QB1 coming off his bye week.
