Who Should I Start? Russell Wilson or Caleb Williams

New York Giants quarterback Russell Wilson (hamstring) revealed on Monday that he played part of this past season with an undisclosed torn hamstring, according to Charlotte Carroll of The Athletic. The 37-year-old veteran said he suffered the injury on the final play of the Friday practice before the Week 2 contest against the Dallas Cowboys. Wilson said he suffered a Grade 2 tear, but he didn't tell the team. Despite the injury, Wilson threw for 450 yards and three touchdowns in the 40-37 overtime loss, also adding 23 rushing yards on three carries. He said he didn't tell the Giants because of the circumstances of knowing that he was trying to hold off rookie QB Jaxson Dart from taking over the starting duties. Wilson eventually lost the starting gig to Dart. At this point in his career, Wilson profiles as a backup signal-caller as he looks to continue playing into the 2026 season.

Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams took massive strides in his second professional season, his first under head coach Ben Johnson, and he is now a borderline top-five quarterback in dynasty startups. The 2024 first overall pick finished as the QB5 in 2025, while seemingly leaving plays out on the field. His 58.1% completion rate didn't even crack the top-50, and his slow starts repeatedly left the Bears fighting from behind late in games. While the possibility exists that Chicago could falter in 2026, unable to rely on miracle finishes, there's also a chance the Bears are just scratching the surface of what Ben Johnson's vaunted offense is capable of. With one more year to shape the team's personnel to his scheme and mold said scheme to William's unnatural athleticism, it's possible QB5 still might be buying low.
