Who Should I Start? Jalen Hurts or Justin Fields

Monday, January 13, 9:55 AM

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts looked solid in his return from concussion protocol in Sunday's 22-10 victory over the Green Bay Packers. Facing a tough Packers defense, Hurts completed 13 of 21 passes (61.9%) for 131 yards and two touchdowns, showcasing his composure and efficiency. He also added six rushes for 36 yards, proving the Eagles had no intention of limiting his involvement in the run game despite his recent injury. Hurts opened the game with six consecutive completions, including an 11-yard touchdown to Jahan Dotson on the Eagles' first drive. His biggest highlight came on a 24-yard touchdown pass to Dallas Goedert in the third quarter, a play that will undoubtedly make postseason highlight reels. Hurts' dual-threat capability will be crucial as the Eagles host the winner of Minnesota Vikings/Los Angeles Rams in the Divisional Round next week.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that the Pittsburgh Steelers are going to pull out all the stops to try and beat the division-rival Baltimore Ravens in the wild-card showdown on Saturday night, which includes using backup quarterback Justin Fields in the offense. Since Russell Wilson took over for the Steelers under center in Week 7, Fields has attempted just one pass while rushing seven times for 58 yards in four games, so it's hard to imagine him having a major role all of a sudden in the postseason. However, it's more reason to fade Wilson in DFS lineups against a Ravens defense that has played its best football at the end of the season. If anything, the Steelers could sprinkle Fields in a bit more on some run-pass option plays to try and keep Baltimore's defense guessing, but it most likely won't be enough to give Fields any kind of fantasy appeal.
