Who Should I Start? Tyler Huntley or Trevor Lawrence

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.

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence is dealing with an illness ahead of Sunday's Week 9 contest against the Las Vegas Raiders, according to an announcement from the team (via Westwood One's J.P. Shadrick). Lawrence's game status remains unchanged, and he is still expected to start on Sunday afternoon. With the quarterback still on track to play, fantasy managers shouldn't worry too much about the illness impacting his productivity. The Jaguars may be just erring on the side of caution with their injury reporting to avoid a violation. Regardless of the exact severity, Lawrence remains the starter and is in line to handle 100 percent of the snaps Sunday. He ranks as a fringe top-12 fantasy quarterback in a favorable matchup against the Raiders.
