Who Should I Start? Geno Smith or Trevor Lawrence

Thursday, December 4, 9:03 PM

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Geno Smith (foot) practiced in full on Thursday. This was an improvement for the veteran quarterback after he had logged a limited practice session on Wednesday. Assuming Smith remains a full participant on Friday, he should enter the weekend without any injury designation, leaving him on track to play in Week 14 against the Denver Broncos. In his last game against Denver, the 35-year-old had 143 passing yards, zero touchdowns, one interception, and six sacks. He has been sacked 25 times over his last four games and will remain outside the top 24 fantasy quarterbacks for Sunday's divisional battle.

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence has had an up-and-down fantasy season so far through 12 games, but he has played decently in recent weeks. Since Week 9, Lawrence has completed 61.6% of his passes for 1,016 yards, seven touchdowns, and six interceptions while adding 27 carries for 122 yards and three touchdowns as a runner. The 26-year-old is averaging 18.6 fantasy points per game during that time, ranking as the QB10. He's adding more value as a runner this season, and his five rushing scores have already matched a career high. Lawrence is still frustrating at times and is one of the more turnover-prone quarterbacks in the league, but he's been a useful player in fantasy for roughly a month now. He's in play as a potential streamer in Week 14 against an Indianapolis Colts defense that will be without top cornerback Sauce Gardner (calf).
