Three QBs Down: What Week 3 Looks Like Without Dart, Daniels and Caleb Williams | The Optimus Fantasy Show
Description
Week 2 took out three starting quarterbacks. Nate Polvogt and Kacey Kasem sort through what it means for your Week 3 lineups.
Jaxson Dart is expected to have season-ending knee surgery, making Jameis Winston the Giants' quarterback the rest of the way. What does that do to Malik Nabers, Cam Skattebo and Isaiah Likely? Jayden Daniels dislocated the same elbow again with no timeline, and Caleb Williams is week to week with a hamstring while his backup sits in concussion protocol.
Looking ahead to Week 3: Kyler Murray is cleared and starting in Tampa, the Chargers are 0-2 and unrecognizable, and Michael Penix Jr. makes his season debut Thursday night at Lambeau.
Topics covered in this episode: the Jaxson Dart injury and Jameis Winston's outlook, Malik Nabers' shoulder, Cam Skattebo and Isaiah Likely, the Jayden Daniels elbow and Marcus Mariota, Stefon Diggs in Washington, Caleb Williams' hamstring and the Bears quarterback room, Kyler Murray's return against Tampa Bay, Justin Herbert and whether he's benchable, Omarion Hampton's workload, and Michael Penix Jr.'s return and what it means for Drake London, Bijan Robinson and Kyle Pitts.
