Jacoby Brissett Throws TD Pass In Preseason Start

Friday, August 14, 12:06 AM

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Jacoby Brissett started the team's second preseason game of the year. Brissett was inactive in last week's Hall of Fame Game against the Panthers, but opened for the Cardinals in their 27-14 win over the Raiders on Thursday night. The ten-year veteran was only on the field for the first drive of the game, but he was very effective. Brissett went 5-for-5 for 44 passing yards on an 11-play drive that culminated in a touchdown throw to Marvin Harrison Jr. After signing a one-year, $15.5 million guaranteed contract in July, Brissett is the presumed starter for the Cardinals going into the 2026 season. Last year, Brissett threw for 3,366 yards and 23 touchdowns to eight interceptions in 14 games (12 starts) for Arizona. His next tune-up will come on August 22 against the Dallas Cowboys.

Trevor Lawrence, Starters Won't Play on Saturday

Thursday, August 13, 7:58 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Liam Coen told the media that quarterback Trevor Lawrence and the team's starters will not play on Saturday when they face the New Orleans Saints. Coen wanted to emphasize getting first-team reps during their joint practice on Thursday, while resting for their preseason contest on Saturday. Lawrence has had a solid training camp and is far ahead of where he was last year at this time. His stellar finish to the season was well documented, as he led all quarterbacks in fantasy points from Week 9 on. Fantasy managers shouldn't hesitate to select Lawrence for his solid rushing upside, weapons, and feel for Coen's offense.
