Colts QB Jacoby Brissett says knee is feeling better

Nov 05, 2019

Two days after his left knee buckled under the weight of Quenton Nelson, Jacoby Brissett looked upbeat in his weekly session with local media.

The Colts starting quarterback had good reason.

According to Brissett, his left knee — he sprained his medial collateral ligament in the second quarter against the Steelers and couldn’t return to the game — feels significantly better than it did on Sunday.

Fantasy Impact:

As we know, Brissett's MRI came back clean and the end result was a sprain. He hasn't been ruled out for Week 10, but the Colts play the Dolphins, which may be considered a winable game for the team to play it safe and stick with Hoyer.

Steelers have signed QB Ben Roethlisberger to a new contract for 2021.

Fantasy Impact:

It's highly unlikely we'll see a return to prior 2019 form for Ben Roethlisberger, but he remains the starter in Pittsburgh for 2021. Even without JuJu Smith-Schuster if he decides to sign elsewhere, the 39-year old QB does have plenty of surrounding offensive weapons and should be considered a QB2 heading into this season.

Giants released WR Golden Tate, per source.

Fantasy Impact:

Last year wasn't the best for Golden Tate, who put up a 35-388-2 line for the Giants in 12 games. The 32-year old will look to get a gig with another NFL team, most likely a one-year deal.

The Saints have officially released TE Jared Cook and TE Josh Hill. The Cook move is procedural, as he was scheduled to be a free agent at the start of the new league year.

Fantasy Impact:

Jared Cook will be 34 at the start of the 2021 season and may have some trouble finding a starting gig, but does still have some playmaking abilities. Josh Hill could find work in the blocking department for a team this season, after spending all his eight-year career with the Saints. For now, Adam Trautman assumes the starting role in New Orleans at TE.
