Who Should I Start? Tyrod Taylor or Bryce Young

Tuesday, August 12, 12:13 PM

New York Jets head coach Aaron Glenn said that veteran backup quarterback Tyrod Taylor (knee) had a "procedure" on his knee, but the team hopes that he will be ready to go for the Week 1 regular-season opener in early September. Taylor missed practice on Monday with his knee injury and will now likely miss the rest of the preseason. With the 36-year-old sidelined, Adrian Martinez and Brady Cook will see additional reps in practices and the preseason behind starter Justin Fields. Taylor is in his 15th season in the NFL and is going into his second year with the Jets. Last year behind Aaron Rodgers, he played in only two games and threw for 119 yards, three touchdowns and no interceptions on 22 pass attempts. Taylor is completely off the fantasy radar as long as Fields is healthy.

Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young was efficient in his first preseason game of the 2025 season, completing four of six passes for 58 yards and a touchdown in Friday's 30-10 loss to the Cleveland Browns. Young went three-and-out on his first drive but put together an incredible second drive. He strung together a nine-play, 74-yard scoring drive that included two big plays to rookie wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan and a five-yard touchdown pass to second-year receiver Jalen Coker. The former No. 1 overall pick showcased his scrambling ability, which he demonstrated in college and near the end of last season. With another year in head coach Dale Canales' system and a new WR1 in McMillan, Young could be a late-round quarterback to consider in fantasy drafts.
