Who Should I Start? Jameis Winston or Joe Milton III

Wednesday, August 20, 9:31 AM

New York Giants Assistant General Manager Brandon Brown put to rest any rumors of a Jameis Winston trade during a Tuesday Press Conference. "I appreciate people that are interested, but Jameis is a New York Giant," Brown told reporters after being asked if the team was taking calls about their veteran backup quarterback. The recent preseason performance of rookie Jaxson Dart, whom the team traded up to draft in the first round, had some wondering if he'd shown enough to supplant Winston for the No. 2 job heading into the season. With the Giants also adding Russell Wilson through free agency to be their starter, the depth chart appears all but settled with one preseason game left to be played, and the team seems comfortable allowing Dart to develop behind the scenes for now.

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Joe Milton III completed just nine of his 18 pass attempts for 122 yards, zero touchdowns, and one interception during Saturday's preseason loss against the Baltimore Ravens. He also took two sacks, including one for a safety. Milton continued to show some mobility and arm strength, but for the most part, he struggled against a solid Ravens defense. Specifically, his interception came on an ill-advised deep pass attempt to the end zone, where he overthrew his receiver and dropped the ball right into the hands of a lurking safety. Milton should still win the backup quarterback job over Will Grier, but he'd be tough to trust in fantasy football if Dak Prescott were to miss time.
