Who Should I Start? Jalen Hurts or Chris Olave

Sunday, October 19, 10:10 PM

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts had his best performance of the season as a passer in his team's 28-22 Week 7 win over the Minnesota Vikings. The 27-year-old completed 19 of 23 pass attempts for 326 yards, three touchdowns, and zero interceptions. Quietly, Hurts has now thrown for at least 280 yards in each of his team's last three games after topping 200 passing yards just once in his first four contests. For the season, Hurts has now recorded 1,498 passing yards and 11 passing touchdowns while adding 185 yards and five touchdowns as a rusher. He remains a must-start fantasy quarterback heading into a Week 8 matchup at home against the New York Giants.

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave caught five of his seven targets for 98 yards and two touchdowns during Sunday's Week 7 loss to the Chicago Bears. Olave briefly exited the contest in the first half and was evaluated in the medical tent, but he returned to the game and proceeded to score a pair of touchdowns. This was the first two-touchdown game of Olave's career, and he also set a new career-high in fantasy points (26.8 in PPR leagues). The 25-year-old has sneakily been one of the most consistent fantasy receivers this year, scoring double-digit points in all seven of his games so far. As long as he can continue to avoid the injury bug, he'll remain a strong WR2 option in most leagues. He faces off against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers next week.
