Who Should I Start? Jameis Winston or Tyler Shough

Saturday, November 15, 9:29 AM

New York Giants quarterback Jameis Winston is set to make his first start of the season in Week 11 against the Green Bay Packers, filling in for an injured Jaxon Dart (concussion). Winston will get the start over Russell Wilson as he is demoted to QB3. The former first overall pick in the 2015 NFL Draft takes over at the helm with interim head coach Mike Kafka after Brian Daboll was fired earlier this week. Winston produced his standard numbers in seven games as a starter in Cleveland last season, completing 61.1% of his passes for 2,121 yards with 13 touchdowns and 12 interceptions. The 31-year-old will be without one of New York's top wideouts in Darius Slayton (hamstring), in a stiff test against a stout Green Bay Packers defense that has allowed the second-fewest net yards per pass attempt (5.1) this season. Winston provides plenty of volatility in a given week, and he'll project as a low-end QB2 for Week 11.

New Orleans Saints quarterback Tyler Shough had a breakout performance in his first career win, completing 19 of 27 passes for 282 yards and two touchdowns in the 17-7 victory over the Panthers. Shough played with confidence throughout, connecting with Chris Olave on a 62-yard score in the second quarter to give the Saints the lead, and they never looked back. He later found Juwan Johnson for a 30-yard touchdown to seal the win. Shough had three completions over 25 yards, something the Saints had only achieved six times through Weeks 1-8 under Spencer Rattler. His deep-ball upside makes him a matchup-dependent streaming option, with Week 12 against the Falcons his next opportunity.
