Who Should I Start? Russell Wilson or Daniel Jones

Wednesday, July 23, 10:10 AM

New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll confirmed again on Wednesday that quarterback Russell Wilson will be the team's starting quarterback. "Russ is our starter," said Daboll. While this has been the vibe for the most part, it's worth the head coach verifying. Wilson currently gives the team their best chance to win games, though it's worth mentioning that backup quarterback Jameis Winston projects as the better option for the pass-catchers and their fantasy output. The 36-year-old is no more than a late-round dart throw at the quarterback position and is likely more suited as a streaming option off waivers at this point in his career.

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Daniel Jones worked with the second team on Saturday, with Anthony Richardson Sr. getting first-team reps. Both players have split time with the first and second teams so far, so it's unknown what sparked the change. While Richardson appears to have the early edge on winning the starting job, there is still a way to go heading into Week 1. Jones threw for 24 touchdowns in his inaugural campaign in 2019. However, he didn't get close to that mark throughout the rest of his time with the Giants. The signal-caller has a fresh start in Indianapolis. Although his fantasy stock will rise if he claims the No. 1 spot on the depth chart, he has a way to go before earning the trust of fantasy managers. Jones would also presumably be on a short leash as a starter, with Richardson likely to enter the equation if he struggles.
