Who Should I Start? Trey Lance or Bryce Young

Sunday, August 10, 9:00 PM

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Trey Lance started the second quarter of the team's 27-13 preseason win against the New Orleans Saints and eventually led a 14-play, 85-yard scoring drive towards the end of the half. The 25-year-old, a former first-round pick, got it done more with his legs than his arm, completing seven of 14 passes for 55 yards through the air while rushing for 48 yards and a touchdown on seven carries. Although he was up and down with his accuracy and had a fumbled snap, Lance looked confident and poised, building off the momentum he gained in the Hall of Fame Game last week. Overall, Lance easily outplayed backup Taylor Heinicke and made a strong case to be Justin Herbert's primary backup this season.

The Carolina Panthers are listing quarterback Bryce Young (ankle) as doubtful to play in Week 8 this Sunday against the visiting Buffalo Bills, according to Joe Person of The Athletic. Young is not going to play this weekend after sustaining a high-ankle sprain in last week's win over the New York Jets, and is also probably going to be in question going into the Week 9 contest at Lambeau Field against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday, Nov. 2. With Young unavailable to play this Sunday, veteran Andy Dalton will make his first start of 2025 for the Panthers. Dalton has the weapons to put up some numbers for fantasy managers in need of a second QB in two-QB leagues, but the Panthers could lean on their strong backfield of Chuba Hubbard and Rico Dowdle, as long as the game script allows. At best, consider Dalton a low-end QB2 streamer in fantasy this week.
