Who Should I Start? Nick Mullens or Jordan Love

Monday, March 10, 4:55 PM

The Jacksonville Jaguars agreed to terms with free-agent quarterback Nick Mullens on Monday on a two-year, $6.5 million deal with $3 million guaranteed, a source told NFL Network's Mike Garafolo. Mullens will be the new backup to Trevor Lawrence in head coach Liam Coen's first year in Duvall. The 29-year-old Mullens will reunite with new Jaguars assistant coach Grant Udinski after the two worked together with the Minnesota Vikings. Mullens spent the last three years in Minnesota, appearing in 13 games (three starts) while throwing for 1,568 yards, eight touchdowns and nine interceptions. He only appeared in four games in relief last year with Sam Darnold having a career year. Mullens will provide veteran backup depth behind Lawrence, though, having appeared in 33 games (20 starts) in his seven years in the NFL with Minnesota, San Francisco and Cleveland.

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love has been QB11 or better in three of his last four games, but draws a tough assignment as the Packers head to Denver to take on the Broncos. Love has back-to-back 20+ fantasy point outings against the Detroit Lions and Chicago Bears, with three or more touchdowns in both games. Making that three straight games, with a road game in Denver, will be a tall order. The Broncos allow the sixth-fewest fantasy points per game to opposing quarterbacks and the ninth-fewest fantasy points to wide receivers as well, making it a tough matchup across the board for the Packers' pass-catchers and Love. For fantasy purposes, Love is a low-end streaming quarterback in single quarterback leagues, but a mid-range QB2 in two-quarterback formats.
