Should I start Joe Fagnano or Tanner McKee in Week 9?

Updated Nov 3, 8:11 AM ET.

Start Tanner McKee: he has been on the field this season, 100 percent of the snaps, and Joe Fagnano has no snap on record yet. 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.
