Washington Free Agency Pressers: Jacoby Brissett talks about competing with Sam Howell

The Washington Commanders made several of their free agent signings official today, and they also had a few of those players answer questions from the media. Jacoby Brissett is the latest veteran quarterback to join Washington’s ever-changing QB room. He plans on coming in and being a good teammate to Sam Howell, and anyone else who’s on his team. Howell has been named Washington’s QB1 heading into the offseason, but Head Coach Ron Rivera has emphasized that there will be competition and the second-year QB will have to earn the starting role.

Brissett has been in the backup role before, but started last year for the Browns while they waited for Deshaun Watson’s suspension to end.
