Jacoby Brissett News
Wednesday, November 4, 9:52 AM
The Arizona Cardinals are finalizing a trade on Wednesday to send veteran quarterback Jacoby Brissett to the Baltimore Ravens, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter and the NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. The deal is expected to be completed this weekend. The Ravens lost two-time MVP QB Lamar Jackson to what is expected to be a season-ending right-thumb injury in their Week 8 loss to the Buffalo Bills on Sunday, and his backup, Tyler Huntley, is also expected to miss the rest of the year with turf toe. Undrafted rookie signal-caller Joe Fagnano is being forced into his first NFL start on Thursday night against the Jacksonville Jaguars, but the Ravens should have Brissett under center for a Monday night matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 10. The writing was on the wall for Brissett to be traded earlier this week when Arizona demoted him to the QB3 role after he was benched in favor of Gardner Minshew II in Sunday's comeback win over the Dallas Cowboys. Brissett, 33, will now be back on the superflex radar as the presumed starter for Baltimore in Week 10 and beyond. It is good news for the rest of the Ravens' offensive skill players in fantasy, most notably receiver Zay Flowers and running back Derrick Henry.

Dak Prescott News
Friday, October 30, 10:57 PM
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott should not be left out of starting lineups in any fantasy football leagues in Week 8. He gets a home matchup with the Arizona Cardinals, who are simply a bad team with a bad defense that's been torn to shreds by opposing quarterbacks this season. If you simply started the QB that faced Arizona each week, you'd have gotten an average of 22.3 fantasy points per game, which would rank as the No. 2 overall quarterback in fantasy football if it were done by one player. The Cardinals are abysmal against the pass, allowing nearly eight yards per pass attempt to opposing QBs. That's a recipe for disaster against an excellent passing offense with two high-quality WRs. Prescott should comfortably eclipse the 20-point mark, making him a lineup lock in all leagues for Week 8.
