Who Should I Start? Kirk Cousins or Caleb Williams

Friday, October 31, 11:35 AM

The Athletic's Josh Kendall reports that the Atlanta Falcons have yet to have "any serious trade discussions with another team," regarding quarterback Kirk Cousins ahead of next Tuesday's trade deadline. Cousins has been the speculation of quarterback-needy teams, although his recent performance in a blowout loss to the Miami Dolphins likely didn't help his case. As it stands, Atlanta is likely to hold both the veteran and second-year pro Michael Penix Jr. (knee). However, Kendall notes that doesn't mean Cousins is a long-term fit for the team. He figures to resume backup duties behind Penix Jr. once the latter is fully recovered from his knee injury. That's likely to change following the 2025 season.

Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams completed 20 of his 36 pass attempts for 220 passing yards, one passing touchdown, and zero interceptions during Sunday's Week 10 win over the New York Giants. He also had 28 rushing yards and one rushing touchdown. Both of Williams' touchdowns came in the fourth quarter, capping off an impressive comeback win in messy weather at home. The 23-year-old did a good job spreading the ball around, and the Bears leaned on the passing attack more than expected, especially with Kyle Monangai and D'Andre Swift both healthy. Williams continues to rank as a solid fantasy QB1 in Week 11 against the Minnesota Vikings.
