Who Should I Start? Trevor Lawrence or Sam Howell

Saturday, December 13, 2:35 AM

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence enters the Week 15 fantasy slate with a friendly home matchup with the Jets. The Clemson alum has scored multiple touchdowns in four straight contests since Liam Coen instructed him to "let it rip," while also being turnover-free in his last two efforts. He's shown a particularly strong rapport with newcomer Jakobi Meyers, tossing a TD in three consecutive games to the 29-year-old wideout. Though the Jets have done well to limit opposing QBs to three combined TDs over four games, they've forced a league-low two turnovers all year (zero interceptions). Lawrence opened the week with an ankle injury designation and a limited practice on Wednesday, but has gotten in full sessions on Thursday and Friday. The rushing potential should be there alongside the improved passing on Sunday, planting him near the top-10 QBs in our RotoBaller ranks for the week.

Quarterback Sam Howell is likely to serve as the Philadelphia Eagles' QB2 behind Jalen Hurts in the season opener against the Dallas Cowboys on Thursday night, according to Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer. The Eagles acquired Howell from the Minnesota Vikings in late August after projected backup quarterback Tanner McKee (thumb) went down with a fractured thumb. McKee is not expected to be ready for Week 1, but he is expected to re-take Philadelphia's QB2 role when fully healthy. If pressed into action, Howell has 18 games of starting experience in the NFL. He led the NFL in pass attempts (612) and interceptions (21) in 17 games for the Washington Commanders in 2023.
