Who Should I Start? Kirk Cousins or Will Levis

Monday, October 21, 11:36 AM

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Kirk Cousins completed 24-of-35 passes for 232 yards and a touchdown but turned the ball over three times in a 34-14 loss to the Seahawks on Sunday. Two of the turnovers came via interception and the other was a fumble that turned into a scoop-and-score for the Seahawks. It was the fifth time in seven games that Cousins failed to record two or more touchdown passes and he now has seven picks in as many games. This was supposed to be a favorable matchup with a banged-up Seahawks secondary and Atlanta favored by three points, but instead, it was a lopsided affair that went in Seattle's favor. While it makes Cousins hard to trust as a weekly streaming option, the good news is that the 36-year-old gets the Buccaneers in Week 8, a team he threw for over 500 yards against with four TDs just a few weeks ago, so he'll get an opportunity to bounce back next week.

Tennessee Titans head coach Bill Callahan reiterated on Monday that quarterback Will Levis (shoulder) will be the team's starting QB when "he is back healthy." Levis was inactive for the Week 7 loss to the Buffalo Bills on Sunday after initially suffering an AC joint sprain in his right shoulder back in Week 4. The second-year signal-caller played in Week 6, but his shoulder didn't respond well in practice last week, paving the way for Mason Rudolph to make his first start of the year this past Sunday. The Titans are listing Levis as week-to-week heading into a Week 8 contest against the Detroit Lions, so it's possible he'll miss a second straight game. "It just needs rest," Callahan said. Tennessee's offense has been pretty bad with both Levis and Rudolph under center this year. Fantasy managers in single-QB leagues can continue to ignore this situation.
