Who Should I Start? Lamar Jackson or Drew Lock

Thursday, December 25, 5:51 PM

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (back) is listed as doubtful for Saturday's contest against the Green Bay Packers. Jackson exited their Week 16 contest with a back injury and was unable to participate in this week's practices. While the Ravens have not officially ruled out their star QB, he appears to be facing an uphill battle to suit up. During last weekend's contest, Jackson was replaced by veteran QB Tyler Huntley. In relief, Huntley went 9-for-10 with just 65 yards and no scores. Even if Jackson is able to suit up, managers should view him as a low-end QB1 with risk given his recent stretch of play. Over his last five games, Jackson has only been able to eclipse the 20.0 PPR point mark once. Huntley would carry low-end QB2 value facing a tough Green Bay defense that has allowed the 10th-fewest PPR points to opposing QBs and should not be started in any one-QB leagues.

Seattle Seahawks quarterbacks Jalen Milroe and Drew Lock will split the reps in the team's first preseason game against the Las Vegas Raiders on Thursday. Reporters are expecting the two quarterbacks to split half of the game on Thursday as the Seahawks will rest Sam Darnold, along with several other key starters. Offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak is also expected to call several QB runs for Milroe when he's in the game against the Raiders, which makes the rookie an interesting choice for preseason DFS contests. Milroe and Lock are battling in training camp to be the backup to Darnold when the regular season opens. If he were to get on the field in 2025, Milroe would be very interesting from a fantasy perspective thanks to his elite rushing upside.
