Jacoby Brissett Takes First-Team Reps, in Line to Start in Week 6?

Thursday, October 9, 2:20 PM

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Jacoby Brissett took first-team reps during Thursday's practice as Kyler Murray (foot) missed his second straight session. Murray's injury appears to be affecting his mobility, and the team may be preparing to roll with Brissett under center for Sunday's matchup against the surging Indianapolis Colts. Brissett last started in 2024 with the New England Patriots, going 1-4 while averaging 5.1yards per attempt. While the veteran brings stability and experience, he lacks the dynamic upside Murray provides both as a passer and runner. Fantasy managers should avoid Brissett outside of deep superflex leagues, as the Cardinals offense faces a difficult challenge on the road against an Indianapolis defense that ranks near the top of the league in takeaways and sacks.

Mason Rudolph News

Mason Rudolph Struggles In Preseason Finale

Friday, August 22, 10:43 AM

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolph completed six of his eight pass attempts for 36 scoreless yards and an interception in Thursday night's 19-10 preseason win over the Carolina Panthers. Rudolph took the field for the team's first three offensive possessions and could not get much of anything going. The Steelers punted twice in the first quarter before Rudolph opened the second period with an ill-advised throw to Ke'Shawn Williams that Carolina picked off. Rudolph's brief showing was quickly outshined by teammate Skylar Thompson, who led Pittsburgh on three straight scoring drives. Nonetheless, the 30-year-old Rudolph should be expected to maintain QB2 duties heading into the regular season as the most experienced backup on the roster, especially if rookie Will Howard (finger) is placed on IR.
