Who Should I Start? Tyler Huntley or Chris Oladokun

Saturday, October 25, 11:07 AM

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Tyler Huntley was recently signed to the active roster, and head coach John Harbaugh revealed that the long-time backup could start if Lamar Jackson (hamstring) gets downgraded from questionable. Huntley has appeared in 21 games for the Ravens across five seasons, with nine of them being starts. As far as backups go, Huntley has been the only one to seemingly make this offense move, and he even made a Pro Bowl in 2022. With that being said, the Chicago Bears have allowed 15 passing touchdowns and forced 11 interceptions this season. Fantasy managers that are forced to start Huntley due to injuries or bye weeks shouldn't expect some sort of huge QB1 performance, but could keep a team afloat if desperately needed.

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Chris Oladokun will now be the starting quarterback for the team heading into the last two games of the season. Kansas City lost Patrick Mahomes to an ACL tear in Week 15, and Gardner Minshew was the next man up in the QB room. Minshew started the game in Week 16 against the Tennessee Titans but left with a knee injury of his own, passing the torch to Oladokun. Oladokun performed well given the hand he was dealt, completing 11 of 16 pass attempts (69%) for 111 yards and rushing twice for seven yards. Last week's contest was the first time Oladokun had ever thrown a pass in an NFL game, so expect there to be some growing pains as he faces one of the toughest defenses in the league on Christmas. The Denver Broncos have allowed the fourth-fewest yards per game and fifth-fewest points per game this season while leading the league in sacks, so Oladokun will have his work cut out for him. The Chiefs quarterback will also have to compete without Rashee Rice and Tyquan Thornton, who were both placed on IR on Wednesday afternoon. Oladokun is ranked QB34 in our RotoBaller rankings, placing him dead-last. Oladokun should not be considered a fantasy option for Week 17
