Who Should I Start? Jeff Driskel or Jordan Love

Tuesday, September 2, 12:55 AM

The Las Vegas Raiders announced that they have signed free agent quarterback Jeff Driskel to their practice squad. The veteran signal caller is now on his ninth NFL team, albeit in a reduced capacity. He spent 2024 with the Washington Commanders but hasn't actually attempted a pass since 2023, when he was a member of the Cleveland Browns. The 32-year-old is expected to offer depth behind Geno Smith and Kenny Pickett (hamstring). Las Vegas also has rookie Cam Miller on its practice squad, but it's unclear whether he or Driskel should be considered the third-string quarterback behind Smith and Pickett. Regardless, it's unlikely Driskel gets into a game anytime soon, and it's even more unlikely that he'll possess any fantasy value. Managers should continue to leave him on waivers.

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love is coming off one of his better games of the season in Week 13 and looks to continue that momentum when the Packers host the Bears in a divisional showdown in Week 14. Love was QB2 overall last week in the Packers' win over the Lions, throwing for 234 yards and four touchdowns. Even with Chicago returning Jaylon Johnson and Kyler Gordon to their secondary, it's a secondary that can be thrown on. Add the weapons that the Packers may get back with Jayden Reed and Matthew Golden, who are both questionable for Week 14, and the Packers have a wealth of options for Love to throw to. Consider Love a fringe QB1 fantasy option when the Packers host the Bears in Week 14.
