Who Should I Start? Russell Wilson or Case Keenum

Wednesday, November 20, 7:41 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Russell Wilson was disappointing in last week's win over the Baltimore Ravens and gets another divisional opponent in the Cleveland Browns on Thursday Night Football. The Browns have been middle-of-the-road against the air attack and fantasy QBs this season. While Wilson averages over 235 passing yards per contest, touchdowns have come inconsistently for this Steelers offense, specifically in the red zone. Additionally, this showdown is projected for a meager point total with the over/under sitting at just 36.5. Because of this, Wilson is not a recommended option in most leagues this week, but he can be deployed as a middling QB2 in superflex or two-quarterback formats.

Houston Texans quarterback Case Keenum started the final preseason game against the Los Angeles Rams but was injured during the match. Keenum appeared to hurt his arm while following through on a throw. He completed 4 of 8 passes for 32 yards. He narrowly avoided an interception on a misfire with wide receiver John Metchie III, who was open, before being replaced by fourth-string quarterback Tim Boyle. Boyle performed well, completing 9 of 13 passes for 64 yards and a touchdown to fullback Troy Hairston in the first half at NRG Stadium. Pro Bowl quarterback C.J. Stroud did not play as he prepares for the season opener against the Indianapolis Colts on September 8. Davis Mills has secured the backup role and is set to be Stroud's primary backup. With Keenum now waiting to see if he or Boyle will be chosen as the third-string quarterback, Keenum may have the edge given his quasi-coach role in C.J. Stroud's development.
