Start:

Carson Wentz, PHI, vs. NYG (Thu.)

Carson Wentz has been a key player on both start and sit rankings through the first six weeks of the season. But it seems, even without all of his weapons, he has figured out what he is doing with his receivers who are healthy. A matchup with the New York Giants appears to be his finest on paper and is worth the add and play moving forward.

Justin Herbert, LAC, vs. JAX

The Los Angeles Chargers have drafted their franchise quarterback and has done nothing but shined, even in defeat. Coming off the bye, Justin Herbert has a real chance to shine against a suspect Jacksonville Jaguars defense. If Keenan Allen is good to go following his injury and Mike Williams can continue to shine, Herbert can produce some top-five numbers this week and more in the future.

Sit:

Derek Carr, LV, vs. TB

The last time we saw Derek Carr play in a game, he went off in a win over the Kansas City Chiefs. And for the most part, he’s played some really good football for his team. Unfortunately for him, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are coming to town and that could be a real problem for him considering their incredible defense at this point. They are fresh off a dominating win over Aaron Rodgers, making it seem like Carr will be in for a long day.

Teddy Bridgewater, CAR, @ NO

Teddy Bridgewater will face his former team for the first time since leaving in free agency this offseason. And he has proven to be a good fantasy football start, but the New Orleans Saints will be fresh and healthy on the defensive side of the ball, making it tough to believe in Bridgewater with better options out there.
