START ‘EM

1. player. 54. . Quarterback. Eagles. Carson Wentz

Carson Wentz hasn’t been back in the fold for very long, but he’s been his same sharp self in his three games back in action. To this point, Wentz has thrown for 914 yards, five touchdowns, and just one interception.

This week, Wentz gets a Giants defense who has actually been pretty tough on opposing quarterbacks. They were able to contain Drew Brees and Cam Newton in back to back weeks, but I still like Wentz as a starting option.

Wentz is just now starting to heat up and he’s projected to score 16.8 points in ESPN leagues this week against the Giants. With the Eagles being in desperation mode, Wentz is in store for a big game.

The Giants have been tough in the secondary, but their pass rush is non-existent. With how much of a wizard Wentz is, expect him to make some dazzling plays on Thursday and get your team some solid fantasy points in the process.
