Who Should I Start? Easton Stick or Devin Leary

Sunday, September 22, 10:28 AM

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Easton Stick could be asked to start under center during Sunday's game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. The team is preparing to start Justin Herbert (ankle), but they haven't made a final decision. If Herbert sits, the Chargers plan to use some strategy that involves both Stick and veteran quarterback Taylor Heinicke. This sounds like a disaster waiting to happen against a tough Steelers defense. Stick threw for 1,129 passing yards with three touchdowns and one interception in five games (four starts) with the Chargers last season. The former fifth-round pick seems like a capable backup, but is not a recommended fantasy option if Herbert is unable to play.

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Devin Leary was the only one on the team to find the end zone in the 16-13 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles on Friday. The rookie out of Kentucky completed six of his 10 passes for 37 yards and scored on a one-yard QB keeper in the fourth quarter which tied the game at 13. On the unofficial depth chart, Leary is listed as the third-string QB behind Josh Johnson, but he looked better than the tenth-year veteran. Leary will likely get some more work in the next couple of preseason games while fellow rookie Emory Jones could get a drive or two as well.
