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.

In Sunday's London game, which few would consider an instant classic, Denver tight end Evan Engram led all Broncos pass catchers with five receptions for 42 yards. Both marks also represented season highs for the veteran tight end, who has now seen at least five targets and four receptions in three straight games. While none of these numbers justify the brief offseason hype stemming from head coach Sean Payton's talk of using him in the Joker role, Engram has provided a reliable floor at a position where that's hard to come by. If he can mix in the occasional touchdown, as he did in Week 5, he should continue to be in play in most formats as injuries and bye weeks mount.
