Who Should I Start? Jimmy Garoppolo or Shedeur Sanders

Saturday, August 9, 1:10 PM

Los Angeles Rams backup quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo is not expected to play in the team's preseason opener on Saturday night against the Dallas Cowboys, according to Gary Klein of the Los Angeles Times. The Rams are also holding starter Matthew Stafford (back) out since he has yet to take part in a training camp practice this summer due to an aggravated disc in his back. The Rams are optimistic that Stafford will be ready for the Week 1 regular-season opener, but in the meantime, Jimmy G has looked good running the first-team offense. With both Stafford and Garoppolo resting this weekend, the Rams will roll with Stetson Bennett and Dresser Winn under center on Saturday against Dallas. Garoppolo is worth stashing in two-QB superflex leagues just in case Stafford's back acts up on him before the start of the regular season.

Cleveland Browns rookie fifth-round quarterback Shedeur Sanders is listed as the QB4 on the team's second unofficial depth chart of the preseason, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Veteran Joe Flacco is listed as the starter, with Kenny Pickett (hamstring) behind him and rookie Dillon Gabriel as the QB3. While Sanders was not perfect by any means in the preseason opener last Friday night against the Carolina Panthers, he did well for himself by going 14-for-23 for 138 yards and two touchdowns while adding 19 rushing yards on four carries. The 23-year-old has gotten more opportunities in training camp with both Pickett and Gabriel missing time with hamstring injuries, but his strong performance over the weekend hasn't really moved the needle in terms of Sanders moving up the QB depth chart in Cleveland. He's going to need to show more.
