Who Should I Start? Kirk Cousins or Dillon Gabriel

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.

Cleveland Browns quarterback Dillon Gabriel will come out of his bye to face off against the New York Jets on the road in Week 10. Gabriel has shown a limited fantasy ceiling this season, passing for 702 yards, five touchdowns, and two interceptions in six games (four starts). The Jets have struggled against opposing passing games this season, allowing the 11th-most fantasy points per game, and that was before they traded Sauce Gardner and Quinnen Williams at Tuesday's NFL trade deadline. That being said, the Cleveland offense has been one of the least impressive units in the league. Gabriel settles in as a QB3 in fantasy heading into Week 10 even in a prime matchup against a gutted New York defense.
