Who Should I Start? Jalen Hurts or Dillon Gabriel

Sunday, October 26, 9:30 PM

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts led his team to a 38-20 Week 8 victory over the New York Giants by completing 15 of 20 pass attempts for 179 yards, four touchdowns, and zero interceptions. The 27-year-old has now thrown for 1,677 yards, 15 touchdowns, and one interception through his first eight games of 2025. Hurts' production as a passer was critical because he was held under 25 yards rushing for the fourth straight game in Week 8. Hurts has also scored just one rushing touchdown over the last five weeks after scoring four across the first three. Given that Philadelphia typically operates in a run-heavy fashion, Hurts will likely need to be better as a rusher going forward to provide elite fantasy production. Still, he remains a must-start fantasy quarterback as the Eagles hit their Week 9 bye.

Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski told the media that Dillon Gabriel will remain the team's starting quarterback following their Week 9 bye. Gabriel struggled in Sunday's loss to the Patriots, completing 60 percent of his passes for just 156 yards, two touchdowns, and two interceptions. The rookie had struggled through his three previous starts, but the lone bright spot during that span was the fact that Gabriel had not turned over the football. That streak came to an end in Week 8 as the Patriots picked him off twice. Cleveland's quarterback room also features Shedeur Sanders (back) and Bailey Zappe, neither of whom has played an NFL snap in 2025. Gabriel will have at least one more opportunity to save his job when the 2-6 Browns face the New York Jets in Week 10.
