Who Should I Start? Joe Burrow or Tyler Shough

Sunday, November 16, 7:59 AM

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow (toe) and defensive end Trey Hendrickson (hip) are both inactive ahead of the Week 11 matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Despite that, both players appear to be heading in the positive direction. Burrow was able to get through limited practice sessions all week. It sounds like he's still multiple weeks away, but the fact he's practicing is a positive step forward. Hendrickson missed practice all week and won't suit up for the second straight game. However, the Bengals have decided not to place him on the injured reserve. It sounds like he's currently week-to-week, but he might not be lost for the season.

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.
