Who Should I Start? Kenny Pickett or Jalen Milroe

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Kenny Pickett will earn a spot start against the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 15 with teammate Geno Smith (shoulder, back) sidelined. While Pickett should offer a nice change from Smith, who has 16 touchdowns, 15 turnovers, and 49 sacks this year, he likely won't be a reliable fantasy starter. Pickett went 8-for-11 with 97 yards and a touchdown in relief of Smith last week, and he hasn't finished any of his four seasons higher than the QB28 in fantasy football. He could struggle against an Eagles defense allowing the fourth-fewest passing touchdowns and 14th-fewest fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks in 2025. Pickett ranks as the overall QB31 in this week's RotoBaller fantasy rankings, which means that he can be benched in all leagues.

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.
