Who Should I Start? Teddy Bridgewater or Jacoby Brissett

Saturday, August 23, 6:21 PM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Teddy Bridgewater (illness) won't play in Saturday's preseason finale versus the Buffalo Bills. The signal-caller appeared in one game this preseason, throwing for 85 yards and two touchdowns off 6-for-11 passing in the meeting with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Bridgewater's absence should mean more work for Kyle Trask and rookie Connor Bazelak. However, as long as Baker Mayfield is healthy and on the field, the No. 2 quarterback on the depth chart will remain mostly irrelevant for fantasy purposes.

With the news that Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (foot) will miss at least four more games after being placed on Injured Reserve, veteran signal-caller Jacoby Brissett should have an extended runway as the team's starter. Since being inserted under center for Arizona in Week 6, the 32-year-old has thrown for 860 yards, six touchdowns, and one interception across three games played. Brissett seems to have given the Cardinals' offense new life, as the team is averaging 25.7 points per game in his starts after averaging 20.6 points per contest with Murray under center. Brissett profiles as a mid-tier fantasy QB2 in a tough Week 10 matchup against the Seattle Seahawks. However, Arizona's schedule lightens up a bit after Week 10. If Brissett keeps performing the way he has so far this season, he should provide fantasy managers in two-quarterback formats with consistent starter-level play.
