Who Should I Start? Zach Wilson or Joe Milton III

Sunday, August 10, 5:04 PM

Miami Dolphins quarterback Zach Wilson had an up-and-down performance in his team's preseason game against the Chicago Bears on Sunday. Wilson completed five of his nine pass attempts for 96 yards and led two touchdown drives, but also took four sacks. Wilson entered the game for Miami's second drive of the day and played through the team's first drive of the second half. The fifth-year signal caller is in his first season with the Dolphins after spending 2024 with the Denver Broncos and not appearing in a game. Wilson is the favorite to be Tua Tagovailoa's backup this year in Miami, although seventh-round rookie Quinn Ewers could push him for the role. Given Tagovailoa's extensive injury history, the Dolphins' QB2 role is one to monitor for fantasy managers.

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Joe Milton III is expected to see a heavy workload during Saturday's second preseason contest against the Baltimore Ravens. Milton was pulled early during their first contest due to an elbow issue. Before exiting, Milton completed 17-of-29 passing attempts for 143 yards with one touchdown and one interception against the Los Angeles Rams. It seems like Milton is the favorite to backup Dak Prescott, but he'll still have to compete with Will Grier. Regardless of who wins, neither quarterback is going to offer fantasy value with Prescott healthy. Milton might be worth a stash in dynasty leagues, but he doesn't have a clear path to playing time.
