Who Should I Start? Justin Fields or Trey Lance

Friday, November 28, 10:43 PM

The New York Jets made the move from quarterback Justin Fields to veteran Tyrod Taylor in the Week 12 loss to the Baltimore Ravens, and Fields will sit out a second straight game in Week 13 when the team takes on the visiting Atlanta Falcons on Sunday. Although the Jets lost another game to Baltimore last weekend, Taylor did improve the passing game slightly, throwing for 222 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. Fields limited his turnovers in his nine starts, but the Jets went 2-7, and he threw for only 1,259 yards and seven touchdowns over that span. He added 71 rushing attempts for 383 yards and four touchdowns on the ground. Fiels is under contract for next season, the second of his two-year, $40 million contract, and the Jets would still owe him $10 million guaranteed if they decided to cut him following this season.

Los Angeles Chargers backup quarterback Trey Lance will receive first-team practice reps in goal-line situations this week. This is a result of starting quarterback Justin Herbert (hand) needing surgery on his left (non-throwing) hand following Sunday's win over the Las Vegas Raiders. Herbert had a metacarpal fracture in his left hand but still plans to play in Week 14 versus the Philadelphia Eagles next Monday night. The fact that Lance is doing goal-line work could be a hint that the Chargers might use him in goal-line situations, with Herbert probably being unable to take snaps under center next week. If Herbert plays in Week 14, he'll be more of a low-end QB1 option in fantasy football while going up against a strong Eagles pass rush.
