Should I start Quinshon Judkins or Jordan Love in Week 6?

Updated Oct 18, 11:56 PM ET. Week 7 answers post Tuesday.

Start Jordan Love: 99 percent of the snaps and 0 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Quinshon Judkins's 56 percent of the snaps and 64 percent of the carries. 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.

Side by side

In 2025 Jordan Love scored 16.1 PPR points a game and Quinshon Judkins 11.3, 4.8 a game between them.

Quinshon Judkins finished RB26 and Jordan Love QB15, which are two different ladders.

Quinshon Judkins is a running back and Jordan Love a quarterback, so the question is which slot you fill first rather than which of them is better.

Byes and availability

Both are off in Week 11, so a roster holding the pair has that one week to cover twice.

Quinshon Judkins is listed as out on the injury report.

What would change the answer

Quinshon Judkins has no posted market, so one half of the evidence on this page exists for only one of them.
