Who Should I Start? Russell Wilson or Justin Jefferson

Saturday, March 8, 12:19 PM

The New York Giants are exploring several quarterback options this offseason, including future Hall of Famer Aaron Rodgers, and are also in on Pittsburgh Steelers impending free-agent QB Russell Wilson, per FOX Sports' Jordan Schultz. The Steelers continue to maintain open dialogue with both Wilson and Justin Fields, who is also a free agent, with the hopes of re-signing one of them. However, the common understanding around the league is that the Steelers prefer to keep Fields over Wilson, even though Wilson took over for Fields in 2024 and ended up starting 11 games. Wilson, a 10-time Pro Bowler, gave the Steelers offense a spark but finished the year on a five-game losing streak. The 36-year-old is nearing the end of his career and doesn't have much fantasy upside left in the tank, although he would be a nice match for receiver Malik Nabers, who had 1,204 yards and seven TDs in his rookie season in 2024.

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson brought in 5-of-8 targets for 58 yards in his team's Wild Card loss to the Los Angeles Rams. The fantasy stalwart tied fellow wideout Jordan Addison for the team lead in targets but was mostly shut down by a stingy Rams defense. It was a rough day for the entire Vikes' offense, as quarterback Sam Darnold had trouble connecting with any of his pass catchers, even when he wasn't in the grass. Jefferson caught his last pass of the contest with just over three minutes to go in the first half. The superstar wideout had another excellent season, but he'll undoubtedly be left wanting more after a near first-round bye. At this time, it is difficult to tell who the 25-year-old's signal-caller will be in 2025. However, he'll still likely be chosen amongst the first few picks in next Summer's fantasy drafts.
