Jacoby Brissett News
Sunday, November 8, 3:46 PM
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Jacoby Brissett has been named the starter for the Week 10 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers. Brissett was acquired on Friday from the Arizona Cardinals in exchange for a fourth-round pick and a seventh-rounder. The Ravens are in desperate need of help at the quarterback spot with Lamar Jackson (thumb) and Tyler Huntley (toe) both sidelined for the foreseeable future. Undrafted rookie Joe Fagnano threw for 151 yards and three interceptions during his two appearances. The hope is that Brissett will give this team more consistent play at the quarterback spot. This season, Brissett has thrown for 1,719 passing yards with 10 touchdowns and seven interceptions in eight games. He'll be in the QB2 streaming conversation for the Monday Night matchup versus the Chargers.

Fernando Mendoza News
Tuesday, November 3, 10:18 AM
Las Vegas Raiders owner Mark Davis is pleased with the coaching staff's plan to develop rookie quarterback Fernando Mendoza and feels "absolutely no pressure whatsoever" to start the first overall pick in this year's draft, according to Adam Hill of the Las Vegas Review-Journal. "Today, there's a lot of pressure put on teams when they draft a guy No. 1 that you have to play him right away," Davis said. "That's why I think we were so fortunate to get Kirk Cousins as someone who could bridge the gap and let this young man learn a lot about what football is in the pros, the speed of the game, and the things that have to be done." Davis has been "blown away" by Mendoza's presence off the field while he sits behind Cousins and learns the intricacies of playing QB in the NFL. The Raiders are currently 4-4, and with Cousins playing really well under center, the Raiders are in no rush to bench him in favor of Mendoza. Just like it was before the start of the 2026 season, mostly all of Mendoza's fantasy value in his first year in the league is in dynasty/keeper leagues.
