Who Should I Start? Tyler Shough or Anthony Richardson Sr.

Tuesday, November 4, 2:27 PM

New Orleans Saints quarterback Tyler Shough went 15-of-24 for 176 yards, one touchdown, and one interception in the Week 9 loss to the Rams. In his first career start, the rookie showed poise by leading a 71-yard touchdown drive to close out the first half. However, New Orleans struggled to sustain offense throughout the game, finishing with just 16:07 in time of possession compared to Los Angeles' 43:53. Shough appeared to build chemistry with receiver Rashid Shaheed, targeting him nine times, though the speedy wideout was traded to the Seattle Seahawks on trade deadline day. With Shaheed gone, Chris Olave should see an even larger target share moving forward. Next up for Shough and the Saints is a road matchup with a Panthers defense allowing 205.8 passing yards per game, ranking 15th in the league. Shough remains off the fantasy radar for now.

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson Sr. (eye) underwent surgery on Monday to repair his orbital fracture, according to NFL.com's Ian Rapoport. He has been sidelined since Week 6 following a freak accident with a piece of workout equipment. The Colts are leaving the door open for Richardson to return later this season, but his fantasy stock is at an all-time low. Even if he does play again this year, Richardson would merely operate as the backup quarterback behind Daniel Jones, who has revived his career during his first year in Indianapolis.
