Who Should I Start? Hendon Hooker or Sean Clifford

Sunday, August 18, 9:12 AM

Detroit Lions quarterback Hendon Hooker completed 12 of 15 passes for 150 yards in Saturday's preseason game against the Kansas City Chiefs on Saturday. The 26-year-old also rushed five times for 11 yards, including a seven-yard touchdown. Hooker did lose a costly fumble late in the game but otherwise looked calm throughout his time on the field. As of now, Hooker's performance and higher ceiling give him the edge for the backup quarterback position over Nate Sudfeld, though both players had poor performances in their first preseason games last week. Hooker remains a dynasty stash for now and will look to improve on Saturday's performance in the preseason finale against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

According to Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network, the Green Bay Packers have signed quarterback Sean Clifford to the active roster before their playoff game against the Philadelphia Eagles. Clifford will serve as the team's emergency third quarterback as both Jordan Love (elbow) and Malik Willis (thumb) battled injuries during the week. While both quarterbacks are off the injury report and do not carry a designation, Clifford would be eligible to enter the game if both quarterbacks were to face a setback during Sunday's contest. Clifford only attempted one pass in his professional career and completed it for 37 yards during the 2023 season. DFS players should view Jordan Love as a low-end option in DFS as he will face a tough Philadelphia defense, the third-fewest PPR points to opposing QBs this season.
