Outlook Jacoby Brissett
Jacoby Brissett vs LAC at home — modest expectations Monday night
Acquired from Arizona with Lamar Jackson on injured reserve due to a thumb injury, Brissett is expected to start Monday night per head coach Jesse Minter. Stepping in to help Baltimore snap a four-game skid against the winless Chargers, the veteran inherits capable weapons in Derrick Henry, Zay Flowers, and Mark Andrews.
His roster rate has climbed since the trade, yet fantasy managers are rightfully keeping him benched in standard leagues. Although he tossed 10 touchdowns across eight games earlier this season, learning a playbook in a projected low-scoring game where favored Baltimore can lean on the run limits his ceiling. Our models project roughly 200 passing yards and a score for 14 fantasy points, making him strictly a deep-league option.

Outlook Nico Collins
Must-Start Option Despite Blustery Road Matchup in Cleveland
Healthy and operating as C.J. Stroud's go-to option in the passing game, Collins comes off an efficient outing highlighted by 55 receiving yards and a spectacular touchdown catch. Even when overall target volume fluctuates, he commands high-value downfield looks and could see extra attention if questionable slot wideout Tank Dell is limited.
Sunday's outdoor game in Cleveland brings chilly, windy conditions and a sluggish projected scoring environment that could cap big plays through the air. Still, actively started in nearly every league, Collins carries our projection of roughly 15 fantasy points and 62 receiving yards, so fantasy managers should feel confident slotting him into lineups across all formats.
