Jacoby Brissett shows some promise, but Colts still miss Luck

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — The Indianapolis Colts finally have a promising backup quarterback in Jacoby Brissett.

They also miss Andrew Luck.

Brissett showed flashes of his long-term potential during a 36-22 loss to the Tennessee Titans on Monday night, but he also struggled at a couple of key moments.

The 23-year-old Brissett went 12 of 17 for 119 yards in the first half, including an 8-yard touchdown pass to Jack Doyle . He went 9 of 20 for 93 yards the rest of the way as the Colts squandered a 19-9 lead.

"I've just got to play better and get us in better position to make more plays, stay ahead of the chains and keep the drives moving," he said.
