Who Should I Start? Tyrod Taylor or Zach Wilson

New York Jets quarterback Tyrod Taylor would be a low-end streaming option in Week 10 if he gets the starting nod for the team's home bout with the Cleveland Browns. Even after a bye week, head coach Aaron Glenn has still not seen fit to name a starting quarterback. The 36-year-old looked like he might get a shot to run away with the starting gig back in Week 8, although he was eventually ruled out with a knee injury. Taylor looks to be over his ailment, carrying no designation into Sunday's contest. The sentiment around the team, however, seems to be that Justin Fields will again lead the Jets' offense. Whichever of the two winds up calling signals for New York will be met with a challenging outing against a Browns unit that's been unkind to opposing offenses. Through eight games, Cleveland is third in total defense (276.9) and has forced the fifth-most interceptions (eight) while yielding a dreary 12.13 rushing yards per game to QBs.

According to NFL Media's Ian Rapoport, it's possible Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa could be benched at some point this season. Although Rapoport added Tagovailoa's "play would have to really fall" off for head coach Mike McDaniel to consider a swap, it appears "a potential benching isn't off the table." There are many calling for the signal-caller to be removed from his spot atop the depth chart. If that's the case, the Dolphins might turn to Zach Wilson. The 26-year-old, selected No. 2 overall in the 2021 NFL Draft, has been far from a reliable fantasy quarterback. In 36 regular-season contests, he's thrown for 6,325 yards, 23 touchdowns, and 25 interceptions while completing a miserable 57.1% of his attempts. For now, Wilson doesn't have much value for redraft participants. That may not change even if he takes over for Tagovailoa. On the other hand, Wilson can be stashed in deep Superflex dynasty formats, especially in leagues where quarterbacks are hard to come by. It's worth noting that Rapoport indicated that rookie Quinn Ewers would also be considered as a replacement for Tagovailoa as well as the Dolphins potentially making a trade.
