Who Should I Start? Tyrod Taylor or Lamar Jackson

Wednesday, November 26, 12:19 AM

New York Jets quarterback Tyrod Taylor performed well in his second start of the season in Week 12 against the Baltimore Ravens, completing 17 of 28 pass attempts for 222 yards, one touchdown, and one interception while adding five carries for 19 yards. Taylor performed well enough against his former team to remain the Jets starter moving forward. His 7.9 yards per attempt ranked eighth among quarterbacks, and his 71.3 QBR was the fifth-best mark in Week 12. The 36-year-old was a noticeable improvement over Fields for at least this game, with one of their trade deadline acquisitions, John Metchie III, posting a career high six catches for 65 yards and a touchdown. Still, the ceiling isn't high for Taylor in fantasy, and he's best viewed as a QB2/QB3 for Week 13 against the Atlanta Falcons.

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson has registered a rough stretch of fantasy finishes over the last three games as he continues to deal with a slew of injuries. This week, he was dealing with a toe issue that kept him out of the walkthrough on Monday, but he was a full participant the rest of the way. His upside remains one of the highest in the league, especially against a Cincinnati Bengals defense that has allowed the third most fantasy points to quarterbacks this season, and the second most over the last four weeks. A lot of these matchups with the Bengals have ended up in a shootout, and Jackson's 10-2 against them in his career with a total of 2,472 yards, 22 touchdowns, and four interceptions. For that reason, he's still projected as a QB1, but he's become a bit more worrisome week by week.
