Who Should I Start? Jacob Eason or Malik Willis

Tuesday, November 7, 3:03 PM

Free agent quarterback Jacob Eason is signing with the New York Giants on Tuesday. The Giants are without Daniel Jones (knee) for the remainder of the season due to a torn ACL, and Tyrod Taylor (ribs) was recently placed on Injured Reserve and could be out for the season, too. Tommy Devito has played in each of their last two games in relief of Jones and Taylor, completing just 17 passes for 174 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions. Eason spent time with the Colts, Seahawks, Panthers, and 49ers during his first three years in the NFL. Although he's thrown just ten passes in the regular season, he could make his way to the starting quarterback role given the shaky situation the G-Men are facing.

Tennessee Titans quarterback Malik Willis will see at least some playing time in Week 8 against the Atlanta Falcons if Ryan Tannehill (ankle) is unavailable. Tannehill suffered a high-ankle sprain in the Week 6 loss to the Baltimore Ravens and is not practicing to begin the week. Head coach Mike Vrabel said both Willis and rookie Will Levis will play on Sunday if Tannehill is ruled out. Obviously, neither signal-caller is on the fantasy radar given the circumstances, but both are worth picking up in deep superflex or two-QB leagues. Willis has completed just 35 of his 66 passing attempts for 350 yards, zero touchdowns, and three interceptions over the last two seasons. Since Levis was selected in the second round of the 2023 NFL Draft, he is likely the favorite to take over the full-time job if Tannehill is out for a while or if the Titans decide to turn the offense over to a young signal-caller.
