Who Should I Start? Russell Wilson or Jalen Hurts

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.

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts completed 15 of 26 pass attempts for 183 yards and a touchdown to go with five carries for 27 yards and a lost fumble in a 10-7 win over the Green Bay Packers on Monday night. Hurts wasn't the most dynamic in this game as the Eagles struggled to consistently move the ball, and while he did lose a fumble on a rushing attempt on a solid opening drive, he did well to avoid mistakes otherwise. The 27-year-old didn't take a sack all night against a vaunted Packers pass rush, his first game without one since Week 8 of last season. Hurts managed the game for the most part while the Philadelphia defense dominated, but he made his best throw of the night on a 36-yard touchdown to DeVonta Smith. Hurts and the Eagles could be in for a shootout next week when they take on the Detroit Lions on Sunday Night Football.
