Who Should I Start? Geno Smith or Mac Jones

Saturday, December 6, 4:15 PM

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Geno Smith (foot) was listed on the injury report this week with a foot injury, but fully practiced on Thursday and Friday and heads into Sunday's matchup against the Denver Broncos without an injury designation. Smith struggled mightily in his first meeting against Denver back in Week 10 on Thursday Night Football, completing 16 of 26 passes for 143 yards and one interception while taking six sacks. That's been a common theme for the 35-year-old signal caller in his first season in Las Vegas. He is tied for the league lead with 14 interceptions and has taken the second most sacks with 46. Smith is only viable in superflex or 2QB leagues, ranked as RotoBaller's QB28 in Week 14.

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Mac Jones will head back to the bench ahead of the Week 11 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. Jones has started in each of the last six games while Brock Purdy (toe) was sidelined. Now, Purdy is ready to play, so Jones will return to being the backup. However, Jones was impressive during his time as the starter. He threw for 2,151 yards with 13 touchdowns and six interceptions in eight games. It sounds like this solid play has made him a prime trade candidate for the 2026 season. Jones is still under control with the organization after signing a two-year, seven million deal with the organization this offseason. Purdy is viewed as the franchise quarterback in San Francisco, so moving Jones makes sense. Given his play this season, Jones should draw some interest in the trade market. This is something to monitor during the offseason.
