Who Should I Start? Jacoby Brissett or Tim Boyle

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.

New York Giants quarterback Tim Boyle made his debut for the team in Sunday's 35-14 loss to the Baltimore Ravens. Signed to the practice squad on November 19, Boyle was activated this week as the primary backup following Drew Lock's heel injury. He entered the game at halftime after starter Tommy DeVito exited with a possible concussion, completing 12 of 24 passes for 123 yards with one touchdown (to Malik Nabers) and one interception. Boyle averaged 5.1 yards per attempt and took one sack, finishing with 7.12 fantasy points in his first action as a Giant.
