2022 Fantasy Outlook
After being selected in the fourth round of the 2021 NFL Draft, Book started in just one game last season as the Saints' No. 3 quarterback behind Taysom Hill and Trevor Siemian. Book struggled in his only start, completing just 12 of 20 passes for 135 yards and two interceptions. In his second year, the 24-year-old figures to remain as the team's third string quarterback with Jameis Winston starting and newly-acquired Andy Dalton serving as the primary backup. If both top options stay healthy, Book will likely not see playing time in the 2022 campaign. Read Past Outlooks
$Signed a four-year, $4.15 million contract with the Saints in May of 2021. Waived by the Saints in August of 2022. Claimed off waivers by the Eagles in August of 2022.
Primed for backup role Week 16
QBPhiladelphia Eagles
December 22, 2022
Book is expected to dress as the backup quarterback behind starter Gardner Minshew with Jalen Hurts (shoulder) ruled out for Saturday's game in Dallas, Dave Spadaro of the Eagles' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Since the Eagles claimed him off waivers from the Saints in late August, Book has yet to suit up in a game this season while both Hurts and Minshew have been healthy up to this point. Book will finally get the opportunity to don a Philadelphia uniform Saturday, but he likely won't be called upon from the bench unless Minshew suffers an in-game injury or if the game turns non-competitive.

2021 Fantasy Outlook
Because Book wasn't certain to hear his name called on draft day, it was a surprise to see New Orleans gamble on the Notre Dame product in the fourth round this spring. However, if there's a coach to trust with developing a mobile quarterback, it's likely Sean Payton after he groomed Taysom Hill from an undrafted project to the possible successor of Drew Brees. Just like Hill, it may take Book a few years to acclimate his style of play to the pros, almost certainly leaving the QB competition in New Orleans to Hill and Jameis Winston. If both contenders stay healthy, Book won't see the field at all during his rookie campaign.
