Report: Colts plan to start Jacoby Brissett vs. Cardinals

The Indianapolis Colts are planning to start Jacoby Brissett instead of Scott Tolzien Sunday against the Arizona Cardinals, sources told NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

Tolzien started Week 1 against the Los Angeles Rams, but threw two pick-6s before giving way to Brissett in the fourth quarter. Brissett led the Colts on their only touchdown drive of the game, showing off his arm strength and aggressiveness with a 50-yard pass to Donte Moncrief to set up the score.

Indy traded for Brissett from the New England Patriots on Sept. 2 in exchange for wide receiver Phillip Dorsett, so it's highly unlikely he'll be able to run the Colts' entire playbook.

"I've been impressed in the short amount of time that he's been here. It would be a very challenging situation," offensive coordinator Rob Chudzinski said Thursday, according to ESPN's Mike Wells. But he's the type of guy - smart, very poised and I like some of the things I've seen on the field just from his physical tools as well."

Andrew Luck has already been ruled out for Week 2 and has yet to resume practicing following offseason shoulder surgery, so Brissett could be the Colts' starter for the foreseeable future.
