Nathan Peterman Daily Fantasy News, Rankings, Projections

CHI QB Justin Fields (hip) has been ruled out Week 18; QB Nathan Peterman will start.

Charles Clay is considered week-to-week for the Bills, so it's very likely we'll see some sort of committee in place against the Jets in Week 10. The Bills are not an offense worth targeting in any fashion at this point, but the Jets D/ST unit figures to be one of the most heavily targeted groups for DFS purposes, as opposing defenses have had a field day against the Bills QB carousel. It's still unclear who will start at QB this coming Sunday, but the Bills have stated that Derek Anderson will start if he's healthy and Josh Allen is unable to go, signaling that Nathan Peterman is last in line.

Nathan Peterman is expected to start Week 9 for the Bills after Derek Anderson sustained a concussion in their week 8 loss to New England. Peterman has been picked apart by opposing DSTs, and this week finds himself facing the Chicago Bears. No one from the Bills offense is viable in this matchup with Peterman under center, and the Bears DST will be a popular play for week 9.

Prior to last week's battle in the snow with the Bills deemed the mobility of Tyrod Taylor as a major concern thus opting to start rookie Nathan Peterman instead. Unfortunately for Peterman and the Bills, injury ( concussion) forced him from the game and the team was forced to finish with third-string QB Joe Webb. Peterman should be considered questionable for Week 15. but if healthy it looks like Tyrod Taylor will start. If neither player is ready to go then the Bills will have to rely on Joe Webb for another week. Webb has played some wide receiver in his career and should provide some mobility in the pocket if he happens to start this weekend.

Desir was starting at corner for the Colts in place of Vontae Davis. After tearing a muscle in his shoulder Sunday, he was placed on IR though, which leaves the team even thinner in their already-weak secondary. Their best remaining DB, Rashaan Melvin, was sidelined in Week 13 and Blake Bortles tore them up, completing 74% of his passes for 309 yards and two scores. Melvin isn’t expected back this week, leaving them with Quincy Wilson and Kenny Moore on the outside, who would rank 99th and 111th in PFF coverage grades if they qualified. On top of that, the Colts are 29th in adjusted sack rate and generally struggle to apply pressure on QBs. It’s going to be incredibly hard to trust Nathan Peterman and his pass-catchers if he starts in place of Tyrod Taylor (knee) but this matchup is worlds apart from his debut against the Chargers.

Taylor's health has improved enough since suffering a concussion on August 26th to participate in practice Monday but he's still questionable for Week 1. In the event he doesn't clear the protocol before Sunday, Peterman would get the nod. He's earned high praise from the Bills this preseason with coach Sean McDermott going as far as saying they're "extremely confident in Nathan." The rookie QB went 9-for-11 for 81 yards in Week 4 of the preseason against the Lions. However, he's not going to be a viable option in DFS. Instead, Buffalo should give LeSean McCoy as much work as he can handle. The running back is expected to have a favorable game script at home against the Jets given the eight-point spread favoring the Bills, although that line will likely move some if Taylor is ultimately ruled out.
