Who Should I Start? Mitchell Trubisky or Bailey Zappe

Monday, August 18, 1:01 AM

Buffalo Bills quarterback Mitchell Trubisky wasn't able to generate much offense during a 38-0 preseason loss to the Chicago Bears on Sunday. After Mike White played the first half and struggled mightily, Trubisky entered in the third quarter and was also unable to put points on the board. The former second overall pick ended his night a forgettable 7-for-13 for 56 yards against the team that drafted him, though Trubisky did lead Buffalo's only productive drive of the night late in the third quarter. That march ended with a completion to running back Frank Gore Jr., who lost a fumble near the Bears' 10-yard line. Trubisky delivered a much better showing in a start against the New York Giants last week, and he certainly didn't lose any ground on Sunday in his battle with White. The two have been competing this summer to serve as the backup to starter Josh Allen. Trubisky held the role last season and looks like the favorite to win the job again this year.

The Cleveland Browns brought back quarterback Bailey Zappe with a spot on their practice squad, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. The fourth-year pro appeared in one game for Cleveland last season, but failed to latch on with Kansas City after training camp and was waived. Cleveland, which traded Kenny Pickett to Las Vegas earlier this week, will keep quarterbacks Joe Flacco, Shedeur Sanders, and Dillon Gabriel on its 53-man roster. Zappe, who had his moments as a rookie in New England, is way off the fantasy radar at this point.
