The list leading up to Week 3 is filled with the best quarterbacks from last week and a couple more who will be starters in Week 3. The biggest starter change is Tua Tagovailoa, he won’t be available due to an injury, but he has an experienced NFL backup named Jacoby Brissett.
Veterans Tom Brady and Ben Roethlisberger continue to play as starters, Brady has performed better the past two weeks and Big Ben lost his most recent game against the Las Vegas Raiders.
The Chicago Bears are still testing Andy Dalton as a starter, but rumors continue to grow about his replacement by Justin Fields. The bad news is that Fields threw a couple of passes last week and one of those passes was an interception.
