Brett Rypien Fantasy

Veteran quarterback Brett Rypien is being signed to the New York Jets active roster off of the Seattle Seahawks practice squad on Tuesday. The 27-year-old played in two games this year for the Los Angeles Rams, completing 18 of his 38 passing attempts for 172 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. New York also released Tim Boyle, so Rypien might have the chance to start ahead of Trevor Siemian and Zach Wilson in the near future. Although none of the Jets' quarterbacks have fantasy value in single-QB leagues, the starter will be rostered in superflex and two-quarterback formats. With the Jets likely falling out of playoff contention, it's becoming less likely that Aaron Rodgers (Achilles) will play again this season.

With the Los Angeles Rams set to sign quarterback Carson Wentz, the team waived quarterback Brett Rypien on Tuesday, according to a source. The move comes two days after Rypien made the Week 9 start against the Green Bay Packers for the injured Matthew Stafford (thumb). Rypien struggled in the 20-3 loss to the Packers at Lambeau Field on Sunday, completing just 13 of his 28 pass attempts for 130 yards, no touchdowns and an interception. He also fumbled twice, losing one of them. The Rams head into their bye in Week 10, but Stafford might not be ready to return after spraining the UCL in his right thumb in Week 8. If Stafford isn't cleared by then, Wentz will make his first appearance in the NFL since playing in eight games (seven starts) for the Washington Commanders in 2022.

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Brett Rypien did not perform well during his first start of the season in the team's Week 9 loss to the Green Bay Packers. Filling in for Matthew Stafford (thumb), Rypien completed 13 of his 28 pass attempts for 130 yards and no touchdowns, while throwing one interception. The 27-year-old also rushed the ball three times for 19 yards on the ground. The offense could not consistently move the ball and the absence of Stafford was clear. Even if Rypien starts against Seattle in Week 10, he should not be on any 1QB league radars.
