The quarterback will likely operate as a reserve option behind Jake Fromm and Brian Lewerke in Week 18 as both Daniel Jones (neck) and Mike Glennon (wrist) will be unavailable. Thorson has spent a large portion of the season with the Giants, allowing him to fill in if needed against Washington on Sunday.

NFL Draft: Day 3 Fantasy Fallout
April 27, 2019
There was some thought Bryce Love might last until the sixth or seventh round, but Washington scooped him up in the fourth, presumably with plans for a 2019 redshirt.
Past Fantasy Outlooks
2021
2019
Thorson will battle for a roster spot behind Daniel Jones and Mike Glennon. In the unlikely event he sees the field, he doesn't offer much as a runner, and his college numbers were pedestrian.
Thorson was a four-year starter at Northwestern but he didn't seem to significantly improve from season to season. However, his less-than-stellar supporting cast may have played a role, not to mention the ACL injury he suffered in the 2017 Music City Bowl. In Philadelphia, Thorson will attempt to push Nate Sudfeld for the backup role behind Carson Wentz.
