Who Should I Start? Nate Sudfeld or Justin Fields

Detroit Lions quarterback Nate Sudfeld (knee) suffered a torn ACL in the third quarter of the preseason finale on Friday night against the Carolina Panthers, according to sources. Sudfeld will now be forced to miss the entire 2023 season. It's a hit to Detroit's QB depth behind Jared Goff, especially with rookie Hendon Hooker (knee) taking a redshirt year in 2023. As things currently stand on Detroit's roster, Teddy Bridgewater will be Goff's primary backup, with only undrafted rookie Adrian Martinez behind him. The Lions will most likely add another body to the QB room before the start of the regular season in two weeks.

Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields came into the 2023 season as a breakout candidate, but his career passing struggles have continued through his first two games. The third-year signal-caller has completed just 40 passes for 427 yards, two touchdowns, and three interceptions in losses to the Green Bay Packers and Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Fields said he thinks he is playing too robotic and thinking too much. When asked what is causing him to think too much, he frankly said, "Coaching." This is not what you want to hear from a franchise quarterback, so things could be heading south quickly for Chicago and its offensive pieces. He continues to be a must-start quarterback in fantasy football thanks to his rushing upside, but that could change if he continues to fall flat.
