Episode notes
Burrow's Return Is Promising But Risky
- Joe Burrow practicing fully suggests he could return by Thanksgiving and would slot as a borderline top-8 QB if healthy.
- Lack of Ja'Marr Chase and potential mobility limits reduce Burrow's ceiling and increase roster risk.
Start Higgins With Tempered Expectations
- Don’t bench Tee Higgins solely because Ja'Marr Chase is suspended; expect steady volume but tougher matchup vs. Christian Gonzalez.
- Start him but lower touchdown expectations and avoid rostering him as a boom-or-bust pivot this week.
Jets QB Change Favors Pass Volume
- Tyrod Taylor as Jets starter implies more pass attempts and a more pass-catcher-friendly offense compared with Justin Fields.
- Running back usage remains mostly unaffected, though some RBs could see minor target bumps.
