Who Should I Start? Jacoby Brissett or DeVonta Smith

Sunday, November 16, 8:59 PM

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Jacoby Brissett completed 47 of his 57 pass attempts for 452 passing yards, two touchdowns, and two interceptions during Sunday's Week 11 loss against the San Francisco 49ers. Brissett's 47 completions broke the NFL's all-time single-game record, surpassing Jared Goff and Drew Bledsoe, who both once had 45 completions. The two turnovers are a blemish on his stat line, but the veteran quarterback still drastically exceeded expectations in fantasy football, even without Marvin Harrison Jr. (appendix) at his disposal. He has 11 total touchdowns in five games since taking over for Kyler Murray (foot), and during that span, he ranks as the overall QB4 in fantasy points per game. He has emerged as a must-start quarterback for Week 12 against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith is looking more and more like the true first option in the Philly passing game after outperforming and out-snapping A.J. Brown against the Packers. Smith has now led his team in receiving yards in five of their nine contests-including the last three in a row-while Brown has done so only once. In Week 11, the Lions travel to Lincoln Financial Field boasting a defense that has not allowed a 100-yard receiver in their last four games. Smith has put up more than 14 points in PPR formats in four of his last five performances, but he'll have his work cut out for him on Sunday night. His target numbers have gotten higher and more consistent after the first four weeks of the season, making him a more reliable WR2 for this week and the foreseeable future.
