After the Los Angeles Rams used the first overall pick in the 2016 NFL Draft to select quarterback Jared Goff out of the University of California, some assumed that he would become the team’s immediate starter at the beginning of the upcoming season.
Fantasy football start/sit advice, Week 11: Do not expect much from Jared Goff
The Rams’ rookie quarterback is making his first career NFL start on Sunday against the Dolphins. We explore the fantasy implications.


However, that has not been the case as the Rams have yet to allow their rookie quarterback to start a single game this year. But after losing four of its last five games, Los Angeles has decided to shake things up a bit and benched starting quarterback Case Keenum in favor of Goff for its game against the Miami Dolphins on Sunday.
Fantasy Impact: In his first NFL start, the Rams’ rookie quarterback will be facing a Dolphins defense that has eight interceptions in its last four games. So it is easy to imagine that Miami is uncontrollably salivating about facing a rookie under center this weekend.
While it might be a good idea for fantasy owners to snatch Goff off the waiver wire this week, starting him in their lineups is far from a smart decision.
