Who Should I Start? Zach Wilson or Kenny Pickett

Sunday, December 7, 11:54 AM

Miami Dolphins quarterback Zach Wilson (illness) is officially active for Sunday's Week 14 contest against the New York Jets. Wilson had been listed as questionable after being a late addition to the injury report on Saturday. In the end, though, the former No. 2 pick will suit up against his old team. He will continue to operate as the backup quarterback behind Tua Tagovailoa. Meanwhile, third-string rookie quarterback Quinn Ewers is a healthy scratch once again.

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Kenny Pickett will earn a spot start against the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 15 with teammate Geno Smith (shoulder, back) sidelined. While Pickett should offer a nice change from Smith, who has 16 touchdowns, 15 turnovers, and 49 sacks this year, he likely won't be a reliable fantasy starter. Pickett went 8-for-11 with 97 yards and a touchdown in relief of Smith last week, and he hasn't finished any of his four seasons higher than the QB28 in fantasy football. He could struggle against an Eagles defense allowing the fourth-fewest passing touchdowns and 14th-fewest fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks in 2025. Pickett ranks as the overall QB31 in this week's RotoBaller fantasy rankings, which means that he can be benched in all leagues.
