BALLER MOVE: Start in 14+ Team & Two-QB Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: QB2
ANALYSIS: Browning has outperformed all expectations while taking over for the injured Joe Burrow. The career backup has now posted back-to-back fantasy QB4 outings while leading Cincinnati to two straight wins.
Can Jake Browning continue his historic start? 🎯

Browning hasn't simply "game-managed" Cincy to victory either. He's attempted 61 passes over their last two, amassing 629 passing yards and three TDs with just one pick. The 27-year-old has also rushed for two scores. However, he draws a difficult Week 15 matchup against a Minnesota defense that's been trending in the right direction of late and has held opponents to less than 21 points of seven of their last eight.
Despite Browning's impressive play, he falls just outside of QB1 status for this less-than-stellar matchup against the blitz-happy Vikings. Although his red-hot stretch has shown that he has plenty of upside, fantasy managers should temper their expectations for the budding QB in Week 15.
