Who Should I Start? Jacoby Brissett or Chase Edmonds

Saturday, October 18, 2:23 PM

The Arizona Cardinals are "once again planning to start" veteran Jacoby Brissett at quarterback against the Green Bay Packers in Week 7, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (foot) is officially listed as questionable, but it appears a mid-foot sprain will keep him out of a second straight game. Brissett played well in his first start of the season in Week 6 against the Indianapolis Colts, completing 27 of 44 pass attempts for 320 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception. The 32-year-old gets a tougher matchup in his second start against Green Bay. At best, Brissett profiles as a low-end streaming option for fantasy managers in two-quarterback formats in Week 7.

Free-agent running back Chase Edmonds, who last played with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2023, is signing a deal to join the Washington Commanders' practice squad, according to Greg Auman of FOX Sports. Edmonds will join a young Washington backfield in 2025 after they just lost Austin Ekeler to a torn Achilles tendon last Thursday night in the loss to the Green Bay Packers. For now, the Commanders will roll with rookie Jacory Croskey-Merritt as their lead back, with Jeremy McNichols and Chris Rodriguez Jr. serving in change-of-pace roles. Rodriguez had a strong training camp and preseason, but he was a healthy scratch in the first two weeks of the regular season. While we wouldn't recommend starting him in Week 3, he's definitely on the radar for a waiver-wire pickup this week, especially if you just lost Ekeler for the year.
