NFL QB Rankings: Jacoby Brissett climbs 10 spots, 2 tiers
Following Jacoby Brissett's very good Week 1 performance, he has moved up a lot in new QB rankings.
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Jacoby Brissett experienced a significant rise in the NFL quarterback rankings after delivering an impressive opening-week performance. On the first day of the season, Brissett completed 27 of his 37 passes, throwing for 277 yards and a touchdown. This stellar effort propelled him to a 26-14 victory over the Los Angeles Chargers.
According to NFL.com's Nick Shook, Brissett's performance catapulted him from No. 28 in Tier 5 to No. 18 in Tier 3 in just one week. Brissett's strong showing demonstrated that he was the true starter on the Cardinals offense, a role he had previously aspired to hold. The quarterback, who has been a team captain and averaged around 280 passing yards per game in his 13 starts with the Cardinals, now faces a potential challenge against the defending Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks.
The Cardinals' performance and Brissett's strong start will be closely monitored during their upcoming matchup, as they prepare to face one of the league's top defenses.
