Who Should I Start? Jacoby Brissett or Khalil Shakir

New England Patriots quarterback Jacoby Brissett relieved rookie Drake Maye (head) during the second quarter of Sunday's game against the New York Jets. He finished the first half and was eventually declared the quarterback for the second half, too, after Maye was downgraded to out. Brissett finished Week 8 having completed 15 of 24 passes for 132 yards, plus one sack and 11 rushing yards. He failed to score a touchdown, but more importantly, he played turnover-free football and led an efficient game-winning drive near the end of the fourth quarter. In the event that Maye enters concussion protocol and misses Week 9 against the Titans, Brissett would temporarily return to the starting quarterback role. He's still off the fantasy radar in most leagues.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Khalil Shakir caught all six of his targets for 61 yards in the team's 31-7 win over the Denver Broncos in the opening round of the postseason. It's the first time since Week 7 that Shakir secured all his targets and the sixth time this season. He led the Bills in receptions and targets but trailed Curtis Samuel (68) in yards thanks to a long completion to the latter. Shakir remains Josh Allen's favorite receiver and should be heavily involved when the Bills host the Baltimore Ravens in the Divisional round next weekend.
