Who Should I Start? Jacoby Brissett or Bo Nix

Friday, December 5, 10:13 AM

Since taking over for the injured Kyler Murray (foot) in Week 6, Arizona Cardinals quarterback Jacoby Brissett has been consistently productive. Across seven starts, the 32-year-old has completed 67.8% of his pass attempts for 2,188 yards, 13 touchdowns, and four interceptions. Brissett has thrown for at least 250 yards in every start and topped 300 yards passing in three straight games heading into his Week 14 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. Arizona's pass-happy approach buoys Brissett's production. He's averaging 43 pass attempts per start overall and 48.6 per game over the last three weeks. Arizona figures to be chasing points once again on Sunday against the Rams, which could lead to another high-volume day for Brissett. Additionally, Murray's return timeline remains murky, as the team has not yet opened his 21-day Injured Reserve activation window. Brissett profiles as a low-end fantasy QB1 for as long as he remains the starter in Arizona.

After back-to-back productive games, rookie wide receiver Pat Bryant is earning praise from his quarterback, Bo Nix. Nix said that Bryant is "an every-down receiver and is getting better and better each week." In the last two games, Bryant has made eight catches on 13 targets for 124 yards, playing a 58% and 70% snap share in those games. The third-round pick from Illinois is becoming a top target for Nix, and he played the second-most snaps of any receiver for the Broncos after their bye week. Bryant and the Broncos face an easy matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 14, who have allowed the sixth-most fantasy points to wide receivers this season. While Bryant is not yet a regular starter, with high praise from his quarterback and a growing role, the rookie receiver is a name to watch this week.
