Who Should I Start? Kirk Cousins or Taysom Hill

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.

New Orleans Saints tight end Taysom Hill has seen a minimal role in the offense since making his season debut in Week 5. Last week, Hill rushed the ball four times for 30 yards in their loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Normally, Hill doesn't see a ton of the field, but that could change in Week 10. Lead back Alvin Kamara (ankle) is currently questionable to suit up against the Carolina Panthers this weekend. That means, Devin Neal could be in line to start if Kamara is unable to go. It could also mean that Hill sees increased carries in the backfield. Fantasy managers should monitor Kamara's status and if he sits out then Hill could become a desperation option for this weekend.
