Who Should I Start? Ryan Tannehill or Joe Burrow

The Minnesota Vikings have had talks with former Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill about a potential deal, sources tell FOX Sports' Jordan Schultz. Talks are ongoing but nothing is imminent at this moment. For the time being, the Vikings have told free-agent QB Aaron Rodgers that they are not interested and are moving ahead full steam with last year's first-rounder, J.J. McCarthy (knee), as their starting signal-caller in 2025. However, after both Sam Darnold and Daniel Jones left in free agency this offseason, the Vikes continue to search for QB insurance behind McCarthy, and Tannehill could be their guy. The 36-year-old didn't join a team for the 2024 season and played in only 10 games (eight starts) in his final season in Tennessee in 2023, throwing for 1,616 yards, four TDs and seven picks. If Tannehill joins the Vikings, it would strictly be as their backup behind McCarthy.

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow (toe) made his return in Thursday's win over the Baltimore Ravens after being sidelined since the Week 2 game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The signal-caller showed signs of rust, although he still finished the night by throwing for 261 yards and two touchdowns. Granted, Burrow had trouble completing some of his passes (24-for-46). Still, fantasy managers were pleased with the end result, especially since he hasn't played in over two months, doing so without Tee Higgins (concussion). With the Bengals desperately trying to keep their playoff hopes alive, the 2020 No. 1 overall pick should play better in the Week 14 meeting with the Bills, a team that has struggled on the defensive side of the ball of late.
