Should I start Tua Tagovailoa or Case Keenum in Week 9?

Updated Nov 3, 6:16 AM ET.

  • : Case Keenum: Listed Out (Coach's Decision) (Sleeper injury feed)

Start Case Keenum: 41 percent of the snaps and 0 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Tua Tagovailoa's 5 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.
