Who Should I Start? Joe Burrow or Ben DiNucci

Thursday, December 4, 10:55 AM

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow was back in action after a 10-week absence, but he looked as strong as ever while throwing for 261 yards and two touchdowns to lead the Bengals to a Thanksgiving night win over the Ravens. Burrow looked sharp for the most part and moved around well, while delivering the ball accurately and avoiding any re-aggravation of his toe injury. He and the Bengals will have to win out to have a shot at the playoffs, but Joe Cool looks ready to resume his regular role as one of the top fantasy quarterbacks in the league. Burrow and the Bengals will battle the Bills in Buffalo this week before a rematch with the Ravens. He's a strong option for fantasy lineups, since he'll need to be aggressive, and the Bengals' defense has regularly put the offense in a place where it needs to put up plenty of points this season.

Quarterback Ben DiNucci announced on X on Saturday that he was released by the Atlanta Falcons. The 28-year-old was best known for his time with the Dallas Cowboys, where he threw for 219 yards in three games. Since then, he has had several unsuccesful stints with other clubs around the National Football League. The Falcons have Michael Penix Jr. as their starting quarterback. Veteran Kirk Cousins is listed behind him on the depth chart, at least for now. As a result, the team cut ties with DiNucci, who stated a "career update" would be coming. It's unknown if he plans to remain in the NFL, assuming there's a team willing to sign him. However, his fantasy value can't get any lower. That's not expected to change anytime soon.
