Colts Daniel Jones named a must-sit in Week 7 of fantasy football

If you're still contemplating starting Daniel Jones in your Week 7 fantasy football lineup, Matt Okada of NFL.com says don't.

In Okada's weekly start-sit column, Jones was an obvious sit, given his struggles this year and this week's matchup against an aggressive Vikings defense.

"Speaking of guys I’d bench for the Eagles backup, Jones is arguably QB28 out of 28 starters in Week 7," Okada wrote. "He hasn’t hit 14 fantasy points once and the Vikings' defense is the toughest matchup in fantasy. Don’t play Danny Pennies even in 2QB leagues."

Jones has had turnover issues this season, throwing six interceptions in six games, along with losing several fumbles. He's also much less efficient this year, completing just 59.6% of his passes, and the Colts' offense has struggled to push the ball downfield, with Jones averaging only 5.9 yards per pass attempt, per PFF.

In addition to that, the offensive line is coming off a tough performance against Tennessee's front, while the run game has been lackluster for much of the year.

Put all that together against Brian Flores' blitz-heavy defense, and it's likely not a recipe for success for Jones and the Colts' offense.

Minnesota blitzes on nearly 70% of their defensive snaps and does so from a variety of looks, adding to the confusion. The Vikings lead the NFL in pressure rate, points per game allowed, and turnover differential.

This is a must-win game for the Colts, but it's not going to come easily.
