Who Should I Start? Tyler Huntley or Sam Hartman

Saturday, October 4, 9:20 PM

According to NFL Media's Ian Rapoport, the Baltimore Ravens elevated quarterback Tyler Huntley from the practice squad to the active roster ahead of the Week 5 meeting with the Houston Texans. Lamar Jackson (hamstring) was ruled out on Friday after tweaking his hamstring during the Week 4 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. As a result, Cooper Rush will get the start on Sunday. With that said, Huntley has had more than a few serviceable showings throughout his career. He's appeared in 25 games, throwing for 2,786 yards, 11 touchdowns, and 10 interceptions, adding five more scores on the run. If Rush has issues leading the offense while Jackson is on the shelf, Huntley may find himself under center. For now, he's not worth adding to fantasy rosters.

Washington Commanders quarterback Sam Hartman completed 12 of 17 passes for 114 yards and two interceptions in a 30-3 loss against the Ravens. Hartman also took two sacks for seven yards while playing the whole first half. One of the interceptions was an unfortunate batted ball, but the other was a late and weak throw where the defender easily undercut it. The Notre Dame product struggled again in the final game of the preseason. He completed only 53.3 percent of his passes while throwing four interceptions to no touchdowns across the three games. It remains to be seen if Washington will opt to to keep three quarterbacks on the roster, and if they did, it seems veteran Josh Johnson would be the choice. Both would be options for the practice squad regardless, but Hartman's lackluster camp and preseason makes it unlikely for him to make the final roster.
