Brissett is questionable for Sunday's game vs. the San Francisco 49ers. Brissett reported tightness in his hamstring after meetings Thursday and received treatment on that night and again Friday. If he can't play, then Howell will start -- four days after coach Ron Rivera said he was replacing him with Brissett.
In two games, Brissett completed 78.3 percent of his passes for 224 yards three touchdowns and no interceptions. He wasn't sacked. He would become the ninth starting quarterback in Rivera's four seasons. Brissett has started 48 games in his eight-year career.
