Who Should I Start? Nate Sudfeld or Jayden Daniels

Friday, August 9, 3:30 AM

Detroit Lions quarterback Nate Sudfeld completed just 13 of 24 passes for 96 yards, zero touchdowns, and one interception during Thursday's preseason opener against the New York Giants. He also rushed three times for an additional 14 yards on the ground. The 30-year-old played most of the game, only ceding reps to Hendon Hooker (head) in the third quarter. (Hooker departed after two drives and entered concussion protocol, bringing Sudfeld back into the game.) Neither player led a touchdown drive, and while Hooker was quite impressive on the ground, his new injury could give Sudfeld the early advantage in the fight to be Jared Goff's backup. If Hooker is expected to miss time, Detroit could add another quarterback to compete with Sudfeld ahead of the 2024 campaign.

Washington Commanders rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels should be viewed as a high-end QB1 when he faces the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday afternoon. Daniels has led the Commanders to two thrilling upset victories during the playoffs. During this two-game stretch, Daniels has averaged 26.6 PPR points per game. He averaged 283.5 passing and 43.5 rushing per game with four total scores. During the final five weeks of the regular season (excluding Week 18), Daniels averaged a stellar 34.0 PPR points per game. The last time he faced this Philadelphia defense, he threw five passing scores with 258 passing and 81 rushing yards. As a result, DFS players should view Daniels as an elite option as he looks to continue Washington's Cinderella run.
