Who Should I Start? Tyrod Taylor or Daniel Jones

Monday, November 17, 12:25 PM

The Athletic's Dianna Russini reports that the New York Jets are making a change at quarterback and will bench Justin Fields in favor of veteran Tyrod Taylor, according to a source. The Jets will face the Baltimore Ravens in Week 12 and rank last in the league in passing yards per game with 139.9. Fields had a decent day for fantasy managers who started him in last Thursday night's loss to the New England Patriots, but he threw for just 116 yards and a touchdown on 26 pass attempts. Fields has finished under 100 passing yards in four of his nine games in his first year in New York, and the Jets are going to go in another direction as they look for a spark. The 36-year-old Taylor isn't going to be a savior for the Jets, but he could be a steadying presence for the offense. In three games this year, he's gone 43-for-69 for 379 yards with three touchdowns and three picks. At best, Taylor is going to be a low-end desperation streamer for fantasy managers in superflex two-QB leagues going forward.

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Daniel Jones completed 19 of 26 pass attempts for 255 yards, one touchdown, and one interception during Sunday's Week 10 win against the Atlanta Falcons in overtime in Berlin. He also had 53 rushing yards on seven carries. Most of Indianapolis' scoring came from Jonathan Taylor on the ground Sunday, but Jones still made an impact by facilitating scoring drives and adding one touchdown through the air. He'll remain a mid-to-low fantasy QB1 on the other side of the Week 11 bye, with most of his fantasy value hinging on exactly how much Taylor gets involved.
