Jameis Winston a Low-End QB3 Against Arizona

Saturday, October 3, 6:20 AM

New York Giants quarterback Jameis Winston struggled again in Week 3, completing 14 of 22 passes for 118 yards in the 12-7 win over the Tennessee Titans. In two games this season, Winston has completed 51% of his passes for 229 yards, with no touchdowns and one interception, averaging under five fantasy points per game. Through three games, the Giants' offense under Matt Nagy ranks 28th in pass attempts and 30th in pass rate over expected. Whether it's due to Winston's accuracy struggles or the way they want to run the offense, the former first-overall pick may not have enough upside to be relevant in all leagues this season. While the Arizona Cardinals have allowed the fourth-most fantasy points to quarterbacks this season, Winston is a low-end QB3 in Week 4.

Justin Fields to Start Saturday's Preseason Game

Thursday, August 20, 6:45 AM

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Justin Fields is preparing to start Saturday's preseason game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and is taking first-team reps in Thursday's practice behind the rest of the starting offensive line, according to Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com. The Chiefs will hold Patrick Mahomes out of a second straight preseason game as he continues to recover from a torn ACL and LCL in his knee from late last year. Fields also started the team's preseason opener last week against the Los Angeles Rams and went 4-for-4 passing for 41 yards and ran the ball twice for nine yards. The 27-year-old former 11th overall pick by the Chicago Bears in 2021 from Ohio State has elite rushing ability for a QB, but his accuracy issues as a passer have kept him from realizing his true potential as a starter in the NFL. Fields was a disaster for the New York Jets last year and played in a career-low nine games, completing 62.7% of his passes for 1,259 yards, seven touchdowns, and one interception. His fantasy stock in all formats is at a new low in 2026 as the backup in KC, but if he is forced into action, he could become interesting in two-QB superflex leagues in head coach Andy Reid's offense.
