Who Should I Start? Russell Wilson or Daniel Jones

Saturday, September 27, 7:14 PM

According to NFL Media's Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo, New York Giants quarterback Russell Wilson "is expected to emerge as a trade candidate" ahead of the deadline. With the G-Men winless through the first three games of the season, head coach Brian Daboll made the call to bench Wilson heading into the Week 4 meeting with the Los Angeles Chargers. In his place, Jaxson Dart will get the start. Despite the demotion, Wilson vowed to "respond" the right way by serving as a mentor to the rookie. Without question, his best days are behind him. However, the 36-year-old could find himself in a more favorable situation, so fantasy managers in Superflex setups with room on the roster may want to consider stashing him. Wilson started three games this season, throwing for 778 yards, three touchdowns, and three picks while completing a career-low 59.1% of his attempts.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport said that the Indianapolis Colts believe that quarterback Daniel Jones is their "franchise guy" at the position, which is why they shipped two first-round picks and receiver Adonai Mitchell to the New York Jets at Tuesday's trade deadline to secure the services of All-Pro cornerback Sauce Gardner to help their secondary. Jones laid an egg in the Week 9 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers, throwing three interceptions and also fumbling three times, but he also threw for a season-high 342 yards on 31 of 50 passing. Overall, in his first year in Indy, Jones has been great, completing a career-best 69.6% of his passes for a league-high 2,404 yards, 14 touchdowns, and six interceptions in nine games. The former first-rounder has led Indy to a 7-2 record and is generating buzz as an MVP candidate. The jury is out on whether Jones can keep this up, but the Colts' strong ground game and offensive line have certainly taken the pressure off of him.
