Should I Start Drew Lock?

Friday, November 13, 3:09 PM

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Drew Lock (elbow, oblique) is a QB2 in Week 10 against the Las Vegas Raiders. The Raiders are No. 31 against opposing quarterbacks in fantasy, but Lock is a bit too banged up to trust in fantasy right now. He was hobbling around the field in Week 9, and at one point, quarterback Jalen Milroe was warming up to replace him. Seattle figures to trust its defense and lean on an improving running game in Week 10 rather than rely on Lock's arm. Additionally, the Seahawks are facing quarterback Fernando Mendoza in his first NFL start. No matter how well or poorly Seattle's offense plays, it should not be forced to air it out at a high rate considering the Raiders could struggle to score themselves. Lock will likely be good for a stat line similar to Week 9, in which he threw for 175 yards and a touchdown, but he is not a high-end streamer this week.
