Who Should I Start? Trevor Siemian or Tua Tagovailoa

Tuesday, August 29, 11:16 AM

The Cincinnati Bengals released quarterback Trevor Siemian on Tuesday after the team officially named Jake Browning as the backup to starter Joe Burrow. Siemian lost the backup QB battle to Browning by completing only 55.4 percent of his pass attempts during the preseason for 316 yards, no touchdowns and two interceptions. The veteran should be able to latch on with another team looking for an experienced backup option. Behind Browning in Cincinnati, the Bengals also have Reid Sinnett as their No. 3. The 31-year-old Siemian was a seventh-round pick by the Denver Broncos in 2015 out of Northwestern and spent the first three years of his career in Denver before bouncing around to New York, New Orleans and Chicago.

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa came back down to Earth against the Patriots after a red-hot Week 1. The Alabama product finished the game with 249 yards, one touchdown, and one interception while completing 21 of his 30 throws. He also added three yards on four carries. The Patriots defense did a good job of neutralizing the deep ball so Tagovailoa and company had to find a way to find without their biggest weapon. On top of that, Jaylen Waddle (concussion) left the game in the later minutes, but Tagovailoa did just enough to get the job done. Fantasy-wise, he didn't help managers too much as he's the QB25 before the Monday night games kickoff. He should bounce back a bit in Week 3 against a Broncos defense that just gave up 35 points and nearly 400 yards to the Commanders.
