Who Should I Start? Jalen Hurts or Tutu Atwell

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.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Tutu Atwell enters the season listed third on the depth chart, which likely leaves him off the fantasy radar for the time being. Although this week's matchup against the Houston Texans is enticing for receivers specifically, Atwell's volume will likely be impacted by the presence of Puka Nacua and Davante Adams, two star pass-catchers who could each command at least 10 targets. Atwell figures to be the primary deep threat option in Los Angeles, which means that he will have some big plays and touchdowns, but he'll also have his fair share of dud games. As long as he's in the No. 3 role, it will be too difficult to predict when those boom or bust games will happen. For now, he can be left on waivers in most leagues.
