Who Should I Start? Phillip Walker or Brock Purdy

Monday, August 28, 9:42 AM

Veteran quarterback P.J. Walker is now looking for a new team after being cut by the Chicago Bears on Sunday. The 28-year-old was brought in on a two-year contract during the offseason to backup Justin Fields but he struggled in training camp. The Bears opted to keep undrafted rookie Tyson Bagent and veteran Nathan Peterman instead. Walker played the last three seasons with the Carolina Panthers, where he compiled a 4-3 record in seven starts.

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy will look to continue his winning ways when he leads his offense against the New York Giants on Thursday night. Purdy is coming off a competent, if imperfect performance. In Week 2, he was 17-of-25 for 206 yards passing and no touchdowns or interceptions. He also made some inaccurate throws that limited his fantasy day though he did score on a quarterback sneak. The Giants' defense, who are league-worst in points allowed per game, have had most of that damage done on the ground. Their pass defense has been surprisingly competent statistically, ranking 9th in the league in yards per game. However, half of that sample was accumulated in last week's game against Arizona's fill-in quarterback Joshua Dobbs. Purdy is again on the QB1/QB2 border with this week's favorable matchup.
