Who Should I Start? Jameis Winston or Jalen Milroe

Tuesday, August 5, 8:35 PM

Offseason free-agent addition Jameis Winston is listed as the New York Giants' No. 2 quarterback behind starter Russell Wilson on the team's first unofficial depth chart. First-round pick Jaxson Dart, the 25th overall selection from Ole Miss, checks in at No. 3 ahead of Tommy DeVito. It doesn't come as a surprise that Winston is second on the depth chart, though Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News notes that the rookie has typically gotten second-team reps ahead of the veteran in practice. Wilson is sure to open the season as New York's starter, but either Winston or Dart could grab the No. 2 job with a strong preseason. The Giants open their exhibition schedule in Buffalo on Saturday.

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Jalen Milroe got his first taste of NFL action on Thursday night as the Seahawks opened their preseason against the Raiders. Milroe came on in the second half after Drew Lock got the start. The rookie third-round pick from Alabama completed six of his 10 pass attempts for 61 yards and added 38 rushing yards on three carries. He led a fourth-quarter touchdown drive that culminated in a rushing touchdown by Anthony Tyus III. That score put the Seahawks up 10 points, but the Raiders came back, and the game ended as a 23-23 tie at the end of regulation. While he was a little inconsistent, the rookie had an impressive 27-yard run, which was the longest of the game for any player. At this point, it looks like Milroe is firmly behind Lock and starter Sam Darnold on the depth chart, but he has enough dynamic upside to be worth monitoring his development to see when he'll have a chance to make an impact.
