Former Patriots quarterback Jacoby Brissett is expected to start for the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday against the Arizona Cardinals, Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network reports.

Brissett, traded by the Patriots on Sept. 2 for wide receiver Phillip Dorsett, will start over Scott Tolzien, who was benched in the fourth quarter of Indy's 46-9, season-opening loss to the Los Angeles Rams.

Colts No. 1 QB Andrew Luck is still recovering from offseason shoulder surgery and hasn't played this season.

Brissett, a second-year player from North Carolina State, was the third QB behind Jimmy Garoppolo and Tom Brady with the Patriots. He started two games last season - a 27-0 Week 3 victory over the Houston Texans and a 16-0 loss Week 4 loss to the Bills - when Brady was suspended and Garoppolo was injured.
