Who Should I Start? Jacoby Brissett or Josh Allen

Free-agent quarterback Jacoby Brissett plans to sign with the Arizona Cardinals, a source tells ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. Brissett, who spent last year with the New England Patriots, will become the new backup to starter Kyler Murray in Arizona. Eleven of Brissett's 53 career starts have come with new Cardinals offensive coordinator Drew Petzing as his quarterbacks coach in Cleveland. The 32-year-old Brissett started the 2024 season as the Patriots' starter under center as they waited on first-rounder Drake Maye. In his eight appearances (five starts), Brissett struggled in a lackluster offense without many weapons, going 95-for-161 (59%) with 826 passing yards, two touchdowns and one interception as a low-ceiling game manager. He is a respected veteran backup, but the Cardinals offense will be in trouble if Murray misses time with an injury in 2025.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Elijah Moore told the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle on Monday that the chance to play with quarterback Josh Allen swayed him to sign with the team in free agency. "For me, it's more like my whole career, I haven't really had too many great opportunities with a stable quarterback the entire season," said Buffalo's new wideout. The former second-round pick of the New York Jets isn't wrong, considering he's earned targets from a carousel of signal-callers at both of his stops in the pros. After a decent rookie season in 2021, Moore had a falling out with the Jets' coaching staff and was shipped to Cleveland the following year. His production has leveled off since then, but the 25-year-old believes his best is yet to come. Outside of teammate Khalil Shakir, the Bills did not have another pass-catcher accrue more than 45 receptions or 560 yards in 2024. Joshua Palmer is in the mix now, and Keon Coleman should improve in his second campaign. Still, Moore is likely to get a solid chance to vie for targets. He's an interesting low-risk investment for now.
