Jacoby Brissett News
Tuesday, November 10, 6:59 AM
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Jacoby Brissett is in line to start Week 10 against the Los Angeles Chargers after being traded to the Ravens following injuries to Lamar Jackson (thumb) and Tyler Huntley (toe), both of whom landed on Injured Reserve. Brissett has some waiver-wire appeal and could inject life into this Ravens offense, which has been struggling mightily with Joe Fagnano under center over the past two games. With the Ravens season in the balance (4-5), Brissett will try to keep it alive and has shown signs of success with the Cardinals over the past year. In 2025, he started 14 games and threw 23 touchdowns to eight interceptions for 3,366 yards; through eight starts this year, he has a 10:7 TD:INT ratio and 1,719 yards. While a step back from his 2025 production, he should provide serviceable quarterback play and help get Zay Flowers back on the map. Brissett should be viewed as a low-end QB2 for Week 10, and fantasy managers desperate for a superflex quarterback or in deeper leagues will want to add him.

J.J. McCarthy News
Wednesday, November 11, 4:06 PM
New York Giants quarterback J.J. McCarthy (hip) is off the injury report and slated to start in Week 10 against the Washington Commanders. McCarthy suffered a hip pointer during the Giants' 19-11 win over the Philadelphia Eagles but practiced all week and is healthy enough to play Thursday night. In three games with the Giants this season, McCarthy has completed 43 of 68 passes for 622 yards, with one touchdown and one interception. McCarthy is set to face a Commanders defense that has allowed the fourth-most fantasy points to quarterbacks this season. Washington has also allowed the fourth-most passing touchdowns in the NFL (16) and the third-most yards per game this season (240). While potential inclement weather could be a factor Thursday night, McCarthy should be considered a low-end QB2 in his first start for the Giants at MetLife Stadium.
