Who Should I Start? Tyler Huntley or Jake Haener

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.

New Orleans Saints quarterback Jake Haener was cut by the organization on Saturday. Haener was waived by the team last week after falling behind Spencer Rattler and Tyler Shough on the depth chart. Haener was brought back on the practice squad, but released again in order to sign defensive end Fadil Diggs. It's unclear if the Saints plan to bring back Haener again. He completed 18-of-39 passing attempts for 226 yards with one touchdown and one interception during the 2024 campaign. The 26-year-old might return to the Saints again if he clears waivers, but isn't worth rostering in fantasy formats.
