No Path to Playing Time for Tua Tagovailoa?

Saturday, October 10, 4:58 PM

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Tua Tagovailoa remains firmly entrenched in the backup role, and it appears that he's stuck in his No. 2 position on the depth chart given how well starter Michael Penix Jr. has played lately. Penix has 479 passing yards, two touchdowns, and one interception in two games since returning from injury, and he has turned the team around from a 0-2 start to a 2-2 record and a tie for first place in the NFC South. Other than an injury to Penix, Tagovailoa's only path to meaningful playing time would have required the former Washington product to play poorly. Instead, he's looked great, widening the gap between him and Tagovailoa and solidifying himself in the starting role. As long as Penix is healthy, Tagovailoa can be left on waivers in both redraft and dynasty fantasy football leagues.

Bryce Young an Intriguing Start in Week 10 Versus Saints

Friday, November 13, 3:05 PM

Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young rebounded in Week 9 in a matchup against the Broncos that was tough on paper, finishing as the QB6 after posting QB18 and QB24 finishes the previous two weeks. Young finished the day with 28 completions for 276 yards and three touchdowns, bringing his passing touchdown total to 17 on the year. This performance makes Young all the more intriguing in his Week 10 matchup versus the New Orleans Saints, whose defense ranks 14th in fantasy points per game given up to opposing QBs and has allowed 255.6 passing yards per game. They have also allowed 18 or more fantasy points to QBs in three of their last four matchups. The Panthers' offensive line has been struggling with injuries, but it still enabled Young to perform well last week. The Saints' defense has a lower pressure rate than their Week 9 opponent, sitting at 19th in the league, which could once again give Young room to make plays. He is a borderline top-12 QB play this week and can be comfortably started as RotoBaller's QB13.
