Who Should I Start? Jalen Hurts or Nick Westbrook-Ikhine

Friday, September 5, 12:55 AM

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts completed 19 of his 23 pass attempts for 152 yards and zero turnovers during Thursday's preseason opener against the Dallas Cowboys. He also rushed 14 times for 62 yards and two touchdowns on the ground. All in all, it was a very strong game from Hurts, who played clean, turnover-free football while leading the team in rushing. The 27-year-old opened the season on an extremely positive note and will look to ride this momentum into the Eagles' Week 2 matchup against the reigning AFC champion Kansas City Chiefs.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine came to Miami this past offseason on a two-year, $6.5 million contract, but he doesn't look like he'll be very involved in Week 1. Westbrook-Ikhine showed a nose for the end zone in his five seasons in Tennessee and had nine touchdowns last year on just 32 catches for 497 yards. He's a big red-zone target that could emerge as a goal-line favorite for Tua Tagovailoa, but he doesn't have a clear path to a role coming into the year. One potential spot he could step into would be to fill in for Darren Waller (hip), since the Dolphins don't have any obvious pass-catching options at tight end. He's a long shot to be involved, though, so Westbrook-Ikhine is the WR99 coming into the week in the RotoBaller rankings, since he's behind at least Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle, and Malik Washington in the Dolphins' receiver room.
