Who Should I Start? Phillip Walker or Daniel Jones

Tuesday, August 27, 8:02 PM

The Seattle Seahawks waived wide receiver Dee Eskridge and released PJ Walker, linebacker Blake Lynch, cornerback Artie Burns and safety Marquise Blair on Tuesday. Injuries limited Eskridge to 24 games (zero starts) in his three seasons with Seattle after they took him in the second round (56th overall) out of Western Michigan. In those 24 games with the Seahawks, he had just 17 receptions (34 targets) for 122 yards and one touchdown. If the 27-year-old pass-catcher clears waivers, he could rejoin the team on their practice squad. Walker will hit the open market, which isn't surprising after the team added Sam Howell as the backup to starter Geno Smith this offseason. The 29-year-old appeared in six games (two starts) with the Cleveland Browns in 2023 and completed a career-low 48.6% of his passes for 674 yards, one TD and five interceptions.

Former New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones is signing with the Minnesota Vikings, according to NFL insider Ari Meirov. The former No. 6 overall pick in the 2019 NFL Draft lands with Kevin O'Connell following his abrupt release from New York. Jones will have the chance to sit behind Sam Darnold in hopes of regaining a starting job in the near future. Jones started 69 games for the Giants, racking up a 24-44-1 record behind 14,582 passing yards, 70 passing touchdowns, and 47 interceptions. He rushed for 2,179 yards and 15 scores. The 27-year-old is not on the fantasy football radar for now, but he's worth stashing in deep Superflex or two-QB leagues. If Darnold were to miss time, Jones would enter an offense with stud pass-catchers, and he still has a little bit of juice as a runner.
