Starts Thursday's game Braxton is starting Thursday's game versus Georgia State, Luke Creasy of The Huntington Herald-Dispatch reports.

Impact Braxton is getting his first start of the season Thursday after playing well in limited action the past two weeks. It's a surprising move given Stone Earle took first team reps in warmups, but it appears that was to trick Georgia State. Braxton has seven touchdown passes on just 41 attempts this season.

Doesn't start, splits work Braxton completed 9 of 12 passes for 92 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 24-23 defeat versus Georgia Southern. He also had eight rushes for 36 yards.

Impact Despite accounting for 269 yards from scrimmage and five touchdowns as a starter in Week 6, Marshall opted for Stone Earle under center instead of Braxton. Earle handled the first four drives, resulting in nine points before the Thundering Herd turned to Braxton for four drives as well. Braxton's four drives yielded 14 points. It's unclear if Marshall will continue to deploy a quarterback timeshare, but both Earle and Braxton can be avoided in fantasy until there's more clarity.
