Joe Milton vs. Giants — Big Arm and Mobility Bring Intrigue in Surprise Start
The Eagles officially named Joe Milton their starting quarterback for Week 9 against the Giants, benching Tanner McKee in search of an offensive spark. Milton joined Philadelphia just weeks ago after signing off Dallas’ practice squad and steps in with starter Jalen Hurts sidelined on injured reserve.
Our weekly projections expect roughly 151 passing yards, 15 rushing yards, and just under 10 fantasy points in what projects to be a low-scoring divisional matchup. While his live arm and rushing mobility offer intriguing ceiling potential, his raw floor and limited reps make him strictly a desperate fantasy option.

Outlook Kirk Cousins
Kirk Cousins at San Francisco brings high-end starting appeal in a projected shootout
Kirk Cousins put any quarterback controversy to rest after accounting for four total touchdowns against the Jets. He enters Week 9 with 19 passing touchdowns on the year and has thrown five scores without an interception over his past two games, operating with complete command of the offense.
Facing the 6-1 49ers, Cousins should see heavy dropbacks with Las Vegas positioned as significant road underdogs in a high-scoring game environment. We project Cousins for 224 passing yards and 1.7 touchdowns (19.6 fantasy points), meaning fantasy managers should feel confident slotting him into lineups this week.
