Who Should I Start? Jameis Winston or Jayden Daniels

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.

The Washington Commanders officially ruled out quarterback Jayden Daniels (elbow) for Sunday night's game against the visiting Denver Broncos in Week 13, according to Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post. Daniels has not played since suffering a gruesome dislocation of his left (non-throwing) elbow in the Week 9 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. The 24-year-old second-year signal-caller returned to practice for the first time this week, but he's not quite ready to make his return after several limited practices. Even though the Commanders are well out of playoff contention, they are optimistic that Daniels can return to play against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 14 if he's cleared for contact. For at least another week, veteran backup Marcus Mariota will lead Washington's offense this Sunday night against one of the best defenses in the league in the Broncos.
