Fantasy Football Start ‘Em or Sit ‘Em Week 2: QB Sam Darnold

Last week, rookie quarterback Sam Darnold had quite the showing in the New York Jets completely embarrassing the Detroit Lions to the final tune of 48-17. Darnold’s first pass was indeed a pick-six but just like everyone expected, he didn’t let it phase him one bit and ended the night strong. Is it enough for fantasy football owners to consider starting him in Week 2?

While Darnold totaled 198 passing yards, 16 completions, and two touchdowns, he’s not worth starting just yet. Many fantasy football owners likely didn’t start him last week due to being a rookie and all but such numbers might convince some to consider giving him a start this time around.
