Who Should I Start? Jacoby Brissett or Mason Rudolph

Sunday, December 7, 10:01 PM

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Jacoby Brissett completed 25 of 44 pass attempts for 271 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception in his team's 45-17 Week 14 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Arizona's pass-happy attack continues to allow Brissett to post solid numbers. Across 10 games (eight starts) worth of action in 2025, the 32-year-old has thrown for 2,459 yards, 15 touchdowns, and five picks. Brissett has thrown for at least 258 yards in all eight of his starts and topped 300 passing yards in four separate contests. He's also attempted at least 40 pass attempts in five straight weeks and is averaging an incredible 43.3 pass attempts per start so far in 2025. As long as the Cardinals continue to find themselves in pass-heavy game scripts every week, Brissett profiles as a viable starting fantasy quarterback. However, Arizona has a difficult matchup in Week 15 against the Houston Texans.

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolph will earn the start against the Chicago Bears in Week 12 after Aaron Rodgers (wrist) was ruled out pregame, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com. Rodgers was pushing to play, but the team decided to hold him out. This will be Rudolph's first start of the season, but he also earned significant snaps after Rodgers exited last Sunday. In that game, he completed 12 of 16 pass attempts for 127 yards, one touchdown, and zero interceptions. This week, the veteran will face off against a Bears defense that leads the league in interceptions but has also allowed the eighth-most fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks in 2025. He's a low-end QB2 for fantasy purposes.
