Who Should I Start? Russell Wilson or Shedeur Sanders

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.

Cleveland Browns rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders completed 20 of his 29 pass attempts for 157 yards and one touchdown, but threw two interceptions in Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Buffalo Bills. Sanders managed to overcome an injured pinky finger on his throwing hand, which forced him out of the game for a few plays, and completed 69% of his passes, his best passing completion percentage of the year. Most notably, the rookie play caller had four rushes for 49 yards, also a season high. If Sanders continues to gain yards on the ground, which helps to support his fantasy points floor, he may become a more appealing deep league Superflex option. Looking ahead, the Browns will host the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 17, whose defense gives up the eighth-most fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks for the year.
