Who Should I Start? Jordan Love or Jalen Milroe

Friday, October 10, 4:05 PM

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love had an awesome game for fantasy managers who started him in Week 4 against Dallas, tossing three touchdown passes to wide receiver Romeo Doubs and piling up 337 passing yards. He'll look to continue that strong play in Week 6 when the Packers host the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 6. Love finished as fantasy's QB6 in Week 4, his first weekly finish as a top-ten quarterback since Week 6 of last season. It was also Love's first game with over 40 passing attempts since Week 4 of 2024. Passing volume isn't a regular thing for the Packers; it's more of an exception rather than the rule. If you're starting Love in Week 6, you're hoping the Bengals can score a bit, so the Packers get pushed to pass a bit more. Ultimately, Love is a viable starting quarterback for fantasy managers against a porous Bengals defense.

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Jalen Milroe (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's Week 6 contest against the Jacksonville Jaguars. He will serve as the Seahawks' emergency third quarterback, which means he can only enter the game if both Sam Darnold and Drew Lock get hurt. Milroe's absence is a bit surprising given that Seattle has several plays designed specifically for him, and we've seen him register snaps in three of five games so far this season. With that said, he did lose a fumble on his lone rushing attempt against the Buccaneers last weekend. Dynasty managers should continue to stash Milroe for his long-term upside, but he's droppable in all redraft leagues as it appears he has fallen to third on the depth chart for now.
