Who Should I Start? Joe Burrow or Justin Fields

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow (turf toe) could miss three months if it is determined that he needs to undergo surgery, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Images of Burrow's injury have been sent to Dr. Robert Anderson, who will review the information and suggest the best course of action for the former No. 1 overall pick. While there was certainly concern that Burrow's injury could be serious after he was seen with crutches and a walking boot, a three-month absence seems to fall on the more extreme end of worst-case scenarios for the star quarterback. We'll likely know more information about his status Monday when the dust settles on Week 2. Barring an unforeseen development, Jake Browning will start at quarterback for the Bengals in Week 3 and beyond.

New York Jets quarterback Justin Fields (head) has officially been diagnosed with a concussion following Sunday's Week 2 contest against the Buffalo Bills. He was taken to the locker room in the second half to be evaluated, leaving Tyrod Taylor as the Jets' primary option under center. Fields finished Sunday's game having completed three of 11 pass attempts for 27 yards through the air, and he also added 49 rushing yards. The Jets will have one week until their next game, which leaves very little time for Fields to recover and clear concussion protocol. If he can't get healthy in time, Taylor would be in line to start at quarterback against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
