Jacoby Brissett Named Ravens' Starter for Week 10

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.

Gardner Minshew II Struggles in Week 9, Remains a Desperation Superflex Option

Monday, November 9, 6:25 AM

Arizona Cardinals 30-year-old quarterback Gardner Minshew II struggled in Week 9 against the Seahawks, completing 21-of-30 passes for 166 yards and no touchdowns or interceptions. Minshew took care of the ball but ultimately couldn't get much going. In Week 10, he faces a tough Rams defense that just brought back Myles Garrett to supplement Aaron Donald on the defensive line. While Minshew was able to carve up the Cowboys' defense in relief in Week 8, the Seahawks proved to be a much more difficult matchup, and while Minshew still has some superflex value as a streaming quarterback, the Cardinals appear likely to give Carson Beck a chance to see what he can showcase before the season ends, meaning Minshew will remain a desperate superflex play moving forward, although he still does have some fantasy appeal in the meantime.
