Should You Start or Sit Daniel Jones in Week 7?
There simply is no middle ground for Jones these days – he’s ranked inside the top 12 at the position three times and outside the top 20 three times. He’s thrown just two touchdown passes in his past three games against the divisional rival (85 attempts), trending me toward a negative ranking.
The Eagles have yet to play a QB with Jones’ mobility profile, but Baker Mayfield, Kirk Cousins, and Jordan Love did all throw multiple touchdown passes against these Eagles. If we get good news on Malik Nabers, Jones’ status as a streamer elevates, but I’m not going to have him as a top-15 play regardless this week, as the middle tier of signal caller is exceptionally strong this week.
