STACKED’s take

Positive signalMatchup

Brissett faces Lions' porous QB defense; grab and start him this week.

Brissett faces the Detroit Lions, who have allowed four straight quarterbacks to score as top-10 fantasy performers; Bryce Young scored just 21.5 points against them last week, the fewest any QB has scored against Detroit this season. The source recommends grabbing Brissett off waivers and starting him directly if needed. Brissett averaged 18.9 fantasy points per game last year but is at 16.5 this season with inconsistency (duds of 6.5 and 10.4, but also a 25.6); his efficiency has dipped to 5.4 yards per pass attempt, though the Lions matchup could improve that.
