ATL QB Desmond Ridder - Week 15 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 15 at New Orleans Saints

Welcome to the NFL, Desmond Ridder. He'll be the sixth rookie quarterback to start a game this season as he takes over for Marcus Mariota, who led the Falcons to a 5-8 record at the bye week. Ridder's first game comes against the Saints, who allowed 215 passing yards to Mariota in Week 1. It's early to say how different the offense will look under Ridder, but at least they're giving the rookie a shot. For now, consider Ridder a borderline QB2 and someone you wouldn't want to get cute with in the playoffs yet.
