Who Should I Start? Jameis Winston or Jacoby Brissett

Saturday, November 15, 9:29 AM

New York Giants quarterback Jameis Winston is set to make his first start of the season in Week 11 against the Green Bay Packers, filling in for an injured Jaxon Dart (concussion). Winston will get the start over Russell Wilson as he is demoted to QB3. The former first overall pick in the 2015 NFL Draft takes over at the helm with interim head coach Mike Kafka after Brian Daboll was fired earlier this week. Winston produced his standard numbers in seven games as a starter in Cleveland last season, completing 61.1% of his passes for 2,121 yards with 13 touchdowns and 12 interceptions. The 31-year-old will be without one of New York's top wideouts in Darius Slayton (hamstring), in a stiff test against a stout Green Bay Packers defense that has allowed the second-fewest net yards per pass attempt (5.1) this season. Winston provides plenty of volatility in a given week, and he'll project as a low-end QB2 for Week 11.

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Jacoby Brissett has been a reliable fantasy option in every game he has started so far, and he will look to maintain his success during Sunday's Week 11 contest against the San Francisco 49ers. In four starts with Kyler Murray (foot) sidelined, Brissett has totaled 1,118 passing yards, eight passing touchdowns, one rushing touchdown, one interception, and three lost fumbles. During that span, he ranks as the overall QB9 in fantasy points per game. The veteran signal-caller handled a very tough test last week against the Seahawks, and so he remains an intriguing fantasy option this week in a slightly softer matchup against the Niners. San Francisco has allowed the eighth-most fantasy points and sixth-most touchdowns to opposing quarterbacks in 2025. The 49ers' defense has also forced just one interception, which is the second-fewest in the NFL. Brissett is a low-end QB1 who can be started in most leagues this week.
