Who Should I Start? Spencer Rattler or Jaxson Dart

Tuesday, October 7, 6:59 PM

New Orleans Saints quarterback Spencer Rattler finally notched his first career win as a starter in Week 5 against the Giants, completing 21-of-31 passes for 225 yards and a touchdown. After averaging just 5.2 yards per attempt through the first four weeks, he finally connected deep with Rashid Shaheed for an 87-yard touchdown in the second quarter. It wasn't a complete shift in play style, but it was a positive sign for the young quarterback. Despite the Saints sitting at 1-4, Rattler looks locked in as the team's starter moving forward. He enters Week 6 as a QB2 with upside against a Patriots defense allowing 242.2 passing yards per game.

With the New York Giants preparing to play on Thursday night against the Eagles, quarterback Jaxson Dart (hamstring) would have been projected as limited in Tuesday's walkthrough. With the short week of preparation, there are no official reports of his participation, but head coach Brian Daboll believes he will be fine for Thursday night. Dart has been a usable fantasy piece since taking over for Russell Wilson and now starting two games. While the rookie signal caller has fumbled twice and thrown two interceptions, while averaging only 5.2 yards per attempt, he's run for over 50 yards in each of his starts, adding one touchdown on the ground. With a built-in floor provided by his legs, Dart will continue to see streamable opportunities throughout the year, but this week against the Eagles is not one of them.
