Who Should I Start? Lamar Jackson or Trevor Lawrence

Friday, October 31, 12:17 AM

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson completed 18 of his 23 pass attempts for 204 yards, four touchdowns, and zero interceptions during Thursday's Week 9 win over the Miami Dolphins. He also rushed for 14 yards. Jackson returned from a multi-week absence caused by a hamstring injury, and he picked up right where he left off. The star quarterback didn't rush as much as he usually does, but he continued to demonstrate impressive accuracy while turning in his second four-touchdown game of the season. Jackson now has 15 touchdowns and just two turnovers through five games. He remains a high-end QB1 heading into next week's clash with the Minnesota Vikings.

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence is dealing with an illness ahead of Sunday's Week 9 contest against the Las Vegas Raiders, according to an announcement from the team (via Westwood One's J.P. Shadrick). Lawrence's game status remains unchanged, and he is still expected to start on Sunday afternoon. With the quarterback still on track to play, fantasy managers shouldn't worry too much about the illness impacting his productivity. The Jaguars may be just erring on the side of caution with their injury reporting to avoid a violation. Regardless of the exact severity, Lawrence remains the starter and is in line to handle 100 percent of the snaps Sunday. He ranks as a fringe top-12 fantasy quarterback in a favorable matchup against the Raiders.
