Who Should I Start? Max Brosmer or Cam Miller

Even though Minnesota Vikings quarterback J.J. McCarthy (concussion) was able to participate in a limited practice on Wednesday, rookie Max Brosmer took all of the first-team reps, according to Kevin Seifert of ESPN. McCarthy came down with a concussion in the Week 12 loss to the Green Bay Packers and is not expected to play in this week's game in Seattle against the Seahawks, so the Vikings are preparing Brosmer to make the first start of his career. The undrafted free-agent rookie QB will be thrown to the wolves on the road this Sunday against a strong Seahawks defense, so fantasy managers shouldn't expect a whole lot from the Vikings' offense. McCarthy has been extremely inconsistent in his first year of NFL action, but Brosmer won't necessarily be an upgrade. The 24-year-old has gone just 5-for-8 passing for 42 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions in parts of three games played in 2025.

The Las Vegas Raiders waived rookie quarterback Cam Miller on Tuesday, per Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. A sixth-round pick out of North Dakota State, Miller showed some flashes during the preseason. His release comes as somewhat of a surprise, with Raiders quarterback Aidan O'Connell (wrist) set to miss significant time after fracturing his wrist. However, Las Vegas solidified its backup QB role by acquiring Kenny Pickett from the Cleveland Browns, and chose not to put O'Connell on injured reserve to begin the year. Miller could potentially find his way back to the Raiders as a practice squad signing or be claimed elsewhere.
