Outlook Tyler Shough
Tyler Shough Brings Low-End QB2 Value into Week Ahead
Tyler Shough is healthy and entrenched as the starting quarterback in New Orleans after closing last season on a high note. The offense features Chris Olave on the outside, though rookie target Jordyn Tyson remains sidelined due to a hamstring injury. Shough commands a balanced offensive attack alongside new lead back Travis Etienne Jr., but the Saints' game plan leans heavily on ball control and short-area timing.
For fantasy purposes, Shough is primarily an option for Superflex formats, shown by his modest 5% start rate. Our weekly projection lands him at roughly 15 fantasy points, pegging him for 197 passing yards, just under one touchdown, and 16 yards on the ground. Facing a tough matchup, he carries a low ceiling that makes him a bench candidate in traditional single-quarterback leagues.

Outlook Deshaun Watson
Deshaun Watson Takes Starting Reins in Jacksonville — Low Fantasy Ceiling in Season Opener
Deshaun Watson secured the starting quarterback job for Cleveland's opener against the Jaguars and was recently named a team captain by head coach Todd Monken. Despite holding off rookie Shedeur Sanders on the depth chart, Watson enters the year under heavy scrutiny and could be on a short leash if the offense struggles out of the gate.
Fantasy managers have largely taken a wait-and-see approach, with Watson rostered in only 3% of leagues and started in 1%. Our projections forecast a modest day through the air, anticipating roughly 196 passing yards, 1.3 touchdowns, and 16 rushing yards (13.2 fantasy points). He offers limited upside and is best left on the bench in standard leagues.
