Harrison Butker or Tua Tagovailoa: who should I start in Week 5?

Neither man carries a posted season price right now, so this is their usage this season and their last full season's numbers, side by side.

Updated Oct 9, 2026 at 2:01 AM ET

Neither is in the consensus draft sample any more, and the market prices neither of them this season, so there is no current market order to give between these two. What follows is what each of them has already done.

Side by side

In 2025 Tua Tagovailoa scored 12.5 PPR points a game and Harrison Butker 8.2, 4.3 a game between them.

Harrison Butker finished K11 and Tua Tagovailoa QB25, which are two different ladders.

Harrison Butker is a kicker and Tua Tagovailoa a quarterback, so the question is which slot you fill first rather than which of them is better.

Byes and availability

Harrison Butker is off in Week 5 and Tua Tagovailoa in Week 11, so either can cover the other's bye.
