The Baltimore Ravens (1-5) will host the Chicago Bears (4-2) in Week 8. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, specifically regarding QB Tyler Huntley.

Should You Start or Sit Huntley in Week 8?
Add Tyler Huntley to the growing list of unexpected Week 8 starters. It’s bad enough we have Bye-mageddon. Apparently, we also have the injury apocalypse. Huntley is making his first start of the season after the Ravens inexplicably thought Cooper Rush, who is the polar opposite of Lamar Jackson, was the better backup. Huntley has experience in the system and has won games for them before.
With that said, fantasy managers should not be looking to the Pro Bowl QB as a one-week fill-in (yes, Huntley made a Pro Bowl!) Huntley started four games for the Dolphins last season and scored more than 11.8 fantasy points just once. He did make three starts and two relief appearances for an injured Jackson in 2021 and averaged 31.8 rushing yards per game. Huntley won’t give you zero because of his mobility, but he’s probably not throwing for more than 175 yards. Look elsewhere for a streamer.
