Who Should I Start? Josh Johnson or Daniel Jones

Saturday, August 9, 9:49 AM

Well-traveled Washington Commanders quarterback Josh Johnson completed 15 of 22 passes for a game-high 173 yards with one touchdown and an interception on Friday against the New England Patriots. Jayden Daniels is the no-doubt starter for Washington with Marcus Mariota also in the fold as the likely backup, leaving Johnson and Sam Hartman competing for the third spot. Hartman struggled while the 38-year-old Johnson proved to be the more effective of the two, at least in the opener. Washington will next take on Cincinnati on Aug. 18.

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Daniel Jones has been managing a fractured fibula in recent weeks, which has noticeably impacted his mobility. His production has fallen off after an outstanding start to his Colts tenure early in the season. Over his first eight games, the former New York Giant completed 71.2% of his passes for 2,062 passing yards with 13 touchdowns to three interceptions, while adding 30 carries for 86 yards and four more scores on the ground. He ranked as the QB5 in total fantasy points per game during that time. Jones has remained solid overall, but as the schedule has gotten more challenging and injuries have mounted, he's become more mistake-prone, committing seven turnovers and taking 13 sacks in the past four games. He'll have an opportunity to bounce back in Week 14 against the division-rival Jacksonville Jaguars, who have been a bottom-10 defense in terms of fantasy points allowed to opposing quarterbacks this season.
