As the NFL gears up for another exciting season, all eyes are on the quarterback battles unfolding during training camp. For fantasy football owners, these competitions hold significant implications for their teams. Let’s take a closer look at four quarterback battles that could impact fantasy rosters this season.
The first battle to watch is in Tennessee, where Mason Rudolph is vying for the starting job. The Titans are looking to improve at the quarterback position, and Rudolph’s strong performance at the end of last season has given them hope. “Rudolph took the NFL by storm,” a Titans insider revealed. With the addition of Calvin Ridley to the offense, fantasy managers are expecting big things from DeAndre Hopkins and Ridley. The competition between Rudolph and Will Levis will be intense as they battle to lead the Titans’ potent offense.
Moving on to Minnesota, where the Vikings are facing a quarterback dilemma. With Kirk Cousins departing in free agency, the team brought in Sam Darnold to mentor rookie McCarthy. “Darnold was brought in for a reason,” a Vikings source explained. It’s clear that Darnold will have the edge in the competition for the starting job. However, McCarthy will need to impress during the preseason to earn the trust of his coaches. Fantasy owners drafting players like Justin Jefferson, Jordan Addison, and T.J. Hockenson should be prepared for potential changes in the offense depending on the starting QB.
In addition to the battles in Tennessee and Minnesota, there are two more competitions to keep an eye on as the season approaches. The Denver Broncos and New Orleans Saints are both dealing with uncertainty at the quarterback position. Fantasy owners with players on these teams will need to monitor the situations closely to adjust their rosters accordingly.
In the fast-paced world of the NFL, training camp battles can have a significant impact on fantasy football. Whether it’s in Tennessee, Minnesota, Denver, or New Orleans, the outcome of these quarterback competitions will shape the fantasy landscape for the upcoming season. Stay tuned for updates as the battles unfold and make sure to adjust your fantasy roster accordingly.
