Who Should I Start? Jalen Hurts or Jaylen Warren

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.

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren rushed for 127 yards on 16 carries during Thursday's Week 7 loss against the Cincinnati Bengals. He also caught four of his five targets for an additional 31 receiving yards. Although Warren wasn't able to find the end zone on Thursday night, he still had a terrific performance with 7.94 yards per carry and a significant impact in the passing game. His efficiency likely peaked thanks to his matchup against a Bengals defensive line sans Trey Hendrickson (hip), but he still has a favorable fantasy outlook heading into Week 8 against the Green Bay Packers. He continues to rank as a steady RB2 option in fantasy football.
