Who Should I Start? Jameis Winston or Caleb Williams

Sunday, November 23, 5:24 PM

New York Giants quarterback Jameis Winston completed 18 of his 36 pass attempts for 366 yards, two passing touchdowns, and one interception during Sunday's Week 12 win over the Detroit Lions. He also got involved in some trickery, adding a third touchdown on a 33-yard reception that was thrown to him by wide receiver Gunner Olszewski. Winston's turnover and low completion rate were unfortunate, but his high yardage and three total touchdowns made him a valuable fantasy option once again. Unfortunately for fantasy managers who were relying on him as a streamer, Winston will head back to the bench in Week 13 if Jaxson Dart (concussion) clears concussion protocol, as expected. The offense belongs to Dart once again, but at least we've seen that Winston can be a fringe top-12 fantasy quarterback if he ever gets thrust back into the starting role.

Chicago Bears signal-caller Caleb Williams has finished as a top-8 fantasy quarterback in back-to-back games, including a QB5 finish in Sunday Night's loss to the 49ers. In Week 18, the Bears face a Lions defense that ranks among the most fantasy-friendly to opposing quarterbacks. The Bears are locked into either the number two or three seed in the NFC playoffs, but a win on Sunday could mean the difference between playing a banged-up Packers seven seed or a more daunting matchup with the Rams or 49ers. With neither Luther Burden III (quad) nor Olamide Zaccheaus (illness) carrying an injury designation into the weekend and Rome Odunze (foot) questionable following a limited practice on Friday, Williams could have as close to a healthy stable of receivers as he's had in some time. He is RotoBaller's QB3 for the final regular-season game of his impressive sophomore campaign.
