Who Should I Start? Kyle Allen or Drew Lock

Monday, March 25, 4:46 PM

Free-agent quarterback Kyle Allen signed with the Pittsburgh Steelers, according to Ari Meirov of the 33rd Team. Allen, a six-year NFL veteran, has thrown for 4,734 yards, 26 touchdowns, and 21 interceptions through his first 30 NFL games with the Commanders, Panthers, Texans, and Bills. With Russell Wilson and Justin Fields now on the roster, Allen is likely competing to be the team's emergency quarterback and scout team signal-caller. The Steelers carried three quarterbacks on the roster last season, so he has a path to sticking around beyond the offseason and training camp. However, he can be safely ignored in fantasy football, regardless of format.

New York Giants quarterback Drew Lock, not Daniel Jones, will serve as the backup to new starter Tommy Devito for the team's Week 12 contest versus the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Coming out of their Week 11 bye, head coach Brian Daboll announced on Monday that the team is making the switch from Jones to DeVito as the starter under center. There's a chance that Jones never makes another start for the G-Men after another disastrous season in 2024. There's also a good chance that we see Lock take over for DeVito at some point before the end of the year. The 28-year-old former second-round pick by the Denver Broncos in 2019 out of Missouri has gone 3-for-8 for six yards in two games for New York this year. He had a spirited performance in one of his stars for the Seahawks in 2023 but would be nothing more than a desperation low-end QB2 if he makes any starts for New York this year.
