Trevor Siemian starting Week 16 for Jets
New York Jets quarterback Trevor Siemian will start Week 16 against the Washington Commanders on Sunday.
What It Means:
Siemian will make his first start of the season while Zach Wilson is sidelined with a concussion. He will have a plus matchup against the Commanders, but the Jets will likely try to rely on the run as much as possible. Siemian has completed 19 of 39 pass attempts for 176 yards with no touchdowns and 2 interceptions in two relief appearances this season.
Siemian is the QB26 in numberFire's Week 16 rankings and our models project him for 13.2 FanDuel points, with 204.9 passing yards, 1.19 touchdowns, 0.9 interceptions, 2.4 carries, and 9.9 rushing yards. The Commanders have the worst pass defense in the NFL, according to our opponent-adjusted efficiency rankings, and they allow the most FanDuel points per game to quarterbacks.
