Who Should I Start? Nate Sudfeld or Jordan Love

Wednesday, August 20, 10:58 AM

The San Francisco 49ers have signed journeyman quarterback Nate Sudfeld to a one-year deal, with the terms of the deal undisclosed. Sudfeld was originally a 6th-round draft pick of the Washington Commanders in 2016 and has seen stops with the Eagles, 49ers, and Lions. Sudfeld was with the 49ers in 2021 when he beat out Brock Purdy for the No. 3 quarterback spot, but he has yet to start a game in his seven-year NFL career. His last appearance in a game was in 2022 with Detroit. With the 49ers moving running back Patrick Taylor Jr. to season-ending IR on Wednesday, they had a roster spot to fill, but Sudfeld sits fifth on the team's quarterback depth chart and is unlikely to make the team's 53-man roster.

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love had a subpar outing in Week 15 against the Denver Broncos, but he will look to correct course when the Packers head to Soldier Field to take on the Chicago Bears. Love faced these Bears just two weeks ago and finished as QB11 for fantasy in Week 14, with three touchdown passes and 234 passing yards. It's fair to expect about the same for Love this week, with the matchup flipping to the Bears' home field. With Josh Jacobs (knee/ankle) having a true questionable designation on Saturday, in addition to multiple wide receivers banged up, Love may be relied upon even more to help carry the Packers to a much-needed divisional win to put them ahead in the NFC North. For fantasy, Love is a fringe starting option this week, with a bit more upside as one of the healthier Packers' offensive players.
