Kyler Murray A Week 16 Low-End QB2

Kyler Murray A Week 16 Low-End QB2

11 months ago

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray's Week 15 performance presented a mixed bag as he completed 26 of 39 passes for 211 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions, adding 49 rushing yards. Despite a brief absence due to a midsection hit, Murray's return was swift, with his surgically repaired knee unaffected. He struggled as a passer and his rushing prowess couldn't help salvage his fantasy output. In Week 16, facing a Bears' defense that has stifled opposing quarterbacks, Murray enters a challenging matchup. The Bears, ranking seventh in fewest yards per attempt, passing touchdowns, and CPOE allowed since Week 10, pose a formidable obstacle. Fantasy managers must weigh Murray's dual-threat ability against the Bears' defensive prowess when considering starting him in this critical Week 16 matchup. As such, he remains on the low end of the QB2 spectrum.
