Who Should I Start? Jacoby Brissett or Trey Lance

Tuesday, October 31, 3:15 PM

The Washington Commanders have taken calls on backup quarterback Jacoby Brissett, but the price has been prohibitive for other teams, as they are asking for a Day 2 draft pick. However, Brissett's price could come down now after the Arizona Cardinals sent quarterback Joshua Dobbs to the Minnesota Vikings for a late-round pick swap on Tuesday. The Commanders have less than an hour before the trade deadline passes on Halloween. They already sent pass-rushers Montez Sweat and Chase Young packing to Chicago and San Francisco, respectively. Brissett was serviceable in a starting role for the Cleveland Browns last year when Deshaun Watson was suspended, but he has yet to start a game in 2023 with Sam Howell the clear starter under center in D.C.

The Dallas Cowboys acquired former third overall pick, quarterback Trey Lance, from the San Francisco 49ers on Friday in exchange for a fourth-round draft pick, according to sources. The writing was on the wall for Lance to find a new home after the Niners announced Sam Darnold as Brock Purdy's backup earlier this week. The Cowboys have Dak Prescott locked in as their starter under center, but the presence of Lance will put some pressure on him to bounce back from a frustrating season in 2022. For now, the 23-year-old Lance will try to continue improving while battling with Cooper Rush for the backup job in his new digs. Until further notice, Lance remains off the fantasy radar in redraft leagues, and his long-term appeal may have only slightly improved with the move to Dallas.
