Should I start Deshaun Watson or Carson Wentz in Week 10?

Updated Nov 11, 2:46 PM ET.

Latest

  • : Carson Wentz: Listed Questionable (Ankle) (Sleeper injury feed)
  • : Deshaun Watson: Questionable to Out (Concussion) (Sleeper injury feed)
  • : Kyler Murray: Questionable to Out (Hamstring, Soreness) (Sleeper injury feed)

Start Deshaun Watson: 98 percent of the snaps and 0 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Carson Wentz's 88 percent of the snaps and 0 percent of the targets. No market projection is posted on either of them this week, so this is a usage call, and a lower confidence one than a call made on a projection. What follows is what each of them has done.

The gap

  • Board size314 draftable players

Draft data is not current for these two, so the figures that depend on it are left out. The call above comes from each player's usage.

Where the draft room stands

Live drafts hold no current pick on Deshaun Watson, and the board ranks him 134th overall on the rest of his evidence.

Live drafts hold no current pick on Carson Wentz, and the board ranks him 224th overall on the rest of his evidence.

The market-based projections

Deshaun Watson's market-based projection is 13.1 PPR points a game, built from 5 markets across 14 market sources. That is the 50th highest figure of the 216 players with a market-based projection.

The market-based projection for Carson Wentz is 0.4 PPR points a game off 1 market across 1 market source. That is 0 percent of what a quarterback's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.

Carson Wentz's projection is not complete, so the two figures are not set against each other here.

Through Week 8, Deshaun Watson has been on the field for 99 percent of CLE snaps, dropped back 306 times and thrown 7.2 air yards an attempt.

Their 2025 seasons

The season feed carries no line for Deshaun Watson in the last completed season.

In 2025 Carson Wentz played 5 games and scored 75.3 PPR points, 15.1 a game, finishing QB39.

He threw for 1216 yards on 169 attempts with 6 touchdowns and 5 interceptions, and ran for 57 yards and 0 touchdowns.

That came to 33.8 attempts a game at 7.2 yards an attempt.

He was on the field for 71 percent of the snaps in the games he played.

Head to head

This season Deshaun Watson holds the bigger snap share, 99 percent against 88 percent.

Their target share this season is the same, 0 percent each.

Byes and availability

Deshaun Watson is off in Week 11 and Carson Wentz in Week 6, so either can cover the other's bye.

Carson Wentz is listed as questionable on the injury report.

What would change the answer

Carson Wentz has only a partial projection, so the market half of this page is whole for only one of them.
