Who Should I Start? Geno Smith or Daniel Jones

Friday, November 7, 12:34 AM

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Geno Smith (quad) was diagnosed with a quad contusion following Thursday's Week 10 loss against the Denver Broncos, head coach Pete Carroll told members of the media, including NFL.com's Ian Rapoport. Smith briefly exited the game early in the fourth quarter and was replaced by Kenny Pickett, who attempted one pass. The veteran quarterback returned to the game, then left again with a "questionable" designation in the final minutes. Las Vegas did not get the ball back, and it's unclear whether Smith or Pickett would have earned snaps if the Raiders' offense returned to the field. The 35-year-old completed 16 of 26 passes for 143 yards and his league-leading 12th interception of the season. He also took six sacks. It remains to be seen whether Smith will play in Week 11. On a positive note, playing on Thursday night gives him a full 11 days to rest and recover before the Raiders return to action against Dallas.

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Daniel Jones completed 19 of 26 pass attempts for 255 yards, one touchdown, and one interception during Sunday's Week 10 win against the Atlanta Falcons in overtime in Berlin. He also had 53 rushing yards on seven carries. Most of Indianapolis' scoring came from Jonathan Taylor on the ground Sunday, but Jones still made an impact by facilitating scoring drives and adding one touchdown through the air. He'll remain a mid-to-low fantasy QB1 on the other side of the Week 11 bye, with most of his fantasy value hinging on exactly how much Taylor gets involved.
