Trust = spike production for that player
Quarterback
Chase Daniel: It looks like Justin Herbert and the Chargers are going to take things down to the last minute in determining his status for Sunday. If Herbert plays, I am playing him. If you can, pick up potential options such as Marcus Mariota, Jimmy Garoppolo, Daniel Jones, Cooper Rush, and even Daniel as fall back options if Herbert cannot play.
Daniel has started just five games over his 13-year career, averaging 220.6 yards per game, throwing six touchdowns to four interceptions. Daniel has finished higher than QB16 in just one of those starts.
The Jags got a gift last week facing a Colts team playing with major absences in their receiving room and may dodge not only Herbert here, but also Keenan Allen.
They were lit up by Carson Wentz in Week 1 for 27.7 points a year after they were 27th in expected points allowed as a pass defense a year ago, allowing a 69.4% completion rate (31st), 7.6 Y/A (26th), and 0.46 points per pass attempt (26th).
Daniel can be picked up to hold for Herbert gamers in hopes he can play on Sunday, but in a vacuum Daniel is only a 2QB option looking for floor production.
