3 Fantasy Football Quarterback Streaming Options for Week 8

On a tough week to stream quarterbacks, Case Keenum is in play thanks to a matchup with a weak Kansas City defense. Which other low-owned passers can you look to?

Quarterback streaming isn't for everyone, but if you're in a standard league -- like a 10- or 12-team league that features just one starting signal caller -- grabbing productive quarterbacks who have good matchups off the waiver wire is often doable.

Sure, you won't have the luxury of setting it and forgetting it with Aaron Rodgers as your quarterback, but when the top-end signal callers draw a tough matchup, their upside can be matched by a waiver-wire option in a more favorable situation.

In Week 7, Joe Flacco totaled 19.56 fantasy points, which made him the QB11 last week. Through seven weeks, our top streaming pick is averaging 20.0 fantasy points, a per-game clip that ranks 12th at the position. We've had a top-12 outing in four of the past five weeks.

If you're looking for some quarterback options from the waiver wire -- regardless of league size -- we have you covered. Here are three quarterbacks owned in fewer than roughly 30% of Yahoo leagues who are in a good spot this week.
