Cleveland Browns quarterback Jacoby Brissett will open the season as the starter until Deshaun Watson returns from an 11-game suspension. He gets a road matchup with the Carolina Panthers on Sunday at 1:00 p.m. ET. Brissett is on his third team in three seasons, and is he worth a Week 1 start in your fantasy football lineup?
