Who Should I Start? Jacoby Brissett or Mac Jones

Saturday, October 18, 2:23 PM

The Arizona Cardinals are "once again planning to start" veteran Jacoby Brissett at quarterback against the Green Bay Packers in Week 7, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (foot) is officially listed as questionable, but it appears a mid-foot sprain will keep him out of a second straight game. Brissett played well in his first start of the season in Week 6 against the Indianapolis Colts, completing 27 of 44 pass attempts for 320 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception. The 32-year-old gets a tougher matchup in his second start against Green Bay. At best, Brissett profiles as a low-end streaming option for fantasy managers in two-quarterback formats in Week 7.

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Mac Jones (knee, oblique) will be under center in the Week 7 matchup versus Atlanta. With Brock Purdy (toe) still working his way back, Jones will get a chance to make amends for his two-interception showing in the recent loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. To be fair, the 27-year-old has played well enough throughout the 2025 campaign, tossing for 1,252 yards, six touchdowns, and three picks while completing 67.3% of his attempts. Unfortunately, the 49ers will be without Ricky Pearsall (knee). However, Jones will still have Christian McCaffrey, Kendrick Bourne, and Jauan Jennings in his arsenal. George Kittle (hamstring) will also make his return after being sidelined since the Week 1 win over the Seattle Seahawks. All things considered, the signal-caller may not be the safest fantasy option in single-quarterback setups against an improved Falcons defense. Still, with Sunday's contest anticipated to be one of the highest-scoring games on the Week 7 schedule, Jones can realistically be utilized by those participating in Superflex formats.
