Brissett is a top-10 QB option in Week 5 against injury-ravaged Lions secondary.

Brissett faces the Lions, who are allowing quarterbacks 327 passing yards, three passing touchdowns, and 29 fantasy points per game this season; even adjusting for opponents faced (Tyler Shough, Josh Allen, Geno Smith, Bryce Young), Detroit has allowed more than six fantasy points per game above expectation. The Cardinals-Lions game total is 54.5 points, the highest of Week 5. Brissett has attempted at least 35 passes in three of four games and is averaging the eighth-most pass attempts per game (38) overall. Almost the entire Lions secondary is injured, with cornerback Rock Ya-Sin set to miss Week 5, making him the fourth Lions starter to go down in their secondary. The source ranks Brissett as a top-10 fantasy option this week, comparable to C.J. Stroud's performance last week against the Cowboys.
