Who Should I Start? Justin Herbert or Jalen Milroe

Monday, January 5, 9:51 PM

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert sat out of the regular-season finale versus the Denver Broncos. It was a smart idea for the Chargers to sit Herbert and give him another week to rest and recover, as he's been playing through a surgically repaired left (non-throwing) hand for the last couple of weeks. The 27-year-old will now head into a tough matchup against a New England Patriots defense that is in the top 10 in terms of passing yards allowed to QBs this season. Herbert hasn't exactly been elite during the second half of the season behind a thin and beat-up offensive line. He has only thrown for multiple scores once over his last four games. Herbert is still a quality QB, but he is looking more like a high-end QB2 for fantasy managers going into the playoffs.

Seattle Seahawks rookie quarterback Jalen Milroe was a healthy inactive for Week 7's matchup against the Texans for the second consecutive game. Milroe had a designed carry each in Weeks 1 and 3, but then fumbled on his lone opportunity in Week 5's loss to Tampa Bay and has since settled into the QB3 role behind Drew Lock. It remains to be seen if the third-rounder out of Alabama will be active again at some point, with how well starter Sam Darnold has played. Milroe remains a solid stash in dynasty leagues.
