PositiveMatchupOct 27, 2026
Jacoby Brissett is a one-week waiver wire rental for Week 8 against the Cowboys, who offer a top-five matchup. He is widely available at only 27% ownership. However, the source notes he has been underwhelming overall: QB8 by expected fantasy points per game but QB21 by actual fantasy points per game, with bottom-three yards per pass attempt and top-three dropbacks per game, indicating volume-dependent, low-efficiency production. The source expects Carson Beck to appear soon after the Cowboys game, making Brissett a short-term play only.PositiveProjectionOct 12, 2026
Despite a Week 5 performance inflated by garbage time and 47 pass attempts, the source remains bullish on Jacoby Brissett for the next four weeks. His recent struggles are attributed to the opponent's defensive play rather than his own performance, and his high volume keeps him viable in the short term.PositiveValueOct 10, 2026
Jacoby Brissett is an underrated quarterback play in a 'best possible matchup' against a Lions defense allowing a league-high 28.9 fantasy points per game to the position. He has demonstrated historical consistency, finishing as a QB1 in 10 of his last 12 games.PositiveValueOct 6, 2026
The source recommends Jacoby Brissett as an 'A tier' waiver target for week five due to a favorable matchup against the Detroit Lions. Brissett has finished as a QB1 in 12 of his last 16 games, a rate comparable to Josh Allen. The strategy is to stream him for this matchup, cut him for games against LA and Denver, and potentially re-add him for the Dallas matchup.NegativeUsageSep 22, 2026
Jacoby Brissett is a low-owned (8%) waiver target who is actively feeding his playmakers, evidenced by 10 targets for Trey McBride and seven for Garrett Wilson in their last game. Despite struggling against Seattle, he is considered a high-floor, D-tier depth option.NegativeProjectionSep 8, 2026
Jacoby Brissett finished as a fantasy QB1 in 10 games last season, according to the data tool's weekly ranking reports.PositiveUsageAug 19, 2026
Scott Barrett identifies Jacoby Brissett as a 'tight end whisperer' who consistently targets the position at the highest rate in the league, serving as a DFS cheat code that has historically boosted the fantasy value of his tight ends.NegativeMatchupJul 9, 2026
Arizona Cardinals starting quarterback; significant downside risk for Cardinals receivers if he underperforms. If Brissett struggles by week 13 and Carson Beck takes over, fantasy outlook for Marvin Harrison Jr. and Michael Wilson becomes 'completely buried.' Brissett's performance directly impacts passing volume and receiver viability in Arizona offense.PositiveUsageNo date
Jacoby Brissett is a high-end QB2 with QB1 upside, having finished as a QB1 in 11 of his last 15 games—a higher rate than Josh Allen. He benefits from a high-volume passing role in Mike LaFleur's offense, though he is generally considered a D-tier streaming option in deeper formats.
