Who Should I Start? Justin Herbert or Spencer Rattler

Friday, August 8, 4:27 PM

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert won't play during Sunday's second preseason game against the New Orleans Saints on Sunday. Taylor Heinicke will get the starting nod for this contest. Trey Lance started during the Hall of Fame game last week. The two of them are competing for the backup gig behind Herbert to begin the season. It's unclear if Herbert is going to play at all during the preseason. At the moment, Herbert should be considered a fringe top-10 fantasy quarterback.

New Orleans Saints quarterback Spencer Rattler completed seven of his 11 passes for 53 yards and added three rushes for 22 yards and a lost fumble in a 27-13 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers in preseason action on Sunday. Rattler, who has been battling with Tyler Shough and Jake Haener throughout training camp, got the start in the game and played into the second quarter. He had trouble moving the ball as he was unable to lead the Saints to any scoring drives in the contest. Shough, on the other hand, mostly played well and may have closed the gap between the two players as they both are vying to be under center when the regular season opens in Week 1. Rattler will look to bounce back in the Saints' next preseason game, which will come on Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
