Jacoby Brissett Remains Your Garbage-Time King
Fall Behind, Then Cut it Loose Arizona trailed 31-7 by the middle of the third quarter, before Brissett tossed his second scoring pass of the day.

Brissett finished the first half just 9-of-21 (42.9%) for 90 yards (4.3 per attempt) with 1 TD, the INT, and a 51.7 passer rating.

Kyler Murray Out Longer Means More Time for Jacoby Brissett
Kyler Murray has not played in just about a month. This is due to a mid-foot sprain that is a kind of version of the Lisfranc injury. However, this type of sprain can be infuriating in terms of recovery. That is why Murray expects to be out several more weeks and perhaps may not be 100% until it is too late for fantasy football owners. With that news, it is no surprise that Jacoby Brissett was named starter ahead of Arizona's Week 10 clash against the Seattle Seahawks.

2022 NFL Draft: NFC South Team Needs
The NFC South was looking pretty wide open up until the announcement of Tom Brady’s return to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The New Orlean Saints, Atlanta Falcons, and Carolina Panthers all find themselves in limbo at the quarterback position while the Bucs stave off that need for now.
