MIAMI GARDENS — Quarterback Jacoby Brissett went through such an up-and-down roller-coaster in his four years with the Indianapolis Colts, it makes playing for the Miami Dolphins look like a kiddie ride.
The South Florida kid from Dwyer High who now plays for his hometown NFL team was a starter in 2017 because of an Andrew Luck injury, reverted back to being a backup in 2018 with Luck’s return and found himself immersed into the starting role again with Luck’s abrupt retirement during the 2019 preseason.
Struggling in the second half of 2019 as the Colts fell out of the playoff picture, the franchise signed Philip Rivers for the 2020 season.
