Who Should I Start? Jake Luton or Tanner McKee

Tuesday, September 26, 9:33 PM

The New Orleans Saints signed quarterback Jake Luton to their 53-man roster from their practice squad on Tuesday. Luton's signing is a good indication that the team is preparing to be without starting quarterback Derek Carr (shoulder) for the near future. Luton will serve as the team's backup QB while Jameis Winston runs the offense in Week 4 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Fantasy managers relying on Carr should be making alternate plans at the quarterback position heading into this weekend.

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Tanner McKee completed 19-of-34 passes for 158 yards, adding one carry for five yards, during the team's 27-13 preseason loss to the Indianapolis Colts. Marcus Mariota was only given one series this week, completing one deep pass for 21 yards. It seems as though the Eagles wanted to provide McKee with as much of a chance to win them over and take the backup job from the veteran as possible, but this was not a particularly outstanding performance overall. With that said, the rookie has looked better than Mariota this preseason, so there is a chance he makes the final 53-man roster. If cut, the Eagles will look to stash the 23-year-old on their practice squad.
