Kyler Murray With Season-High Two Touchdowns In Defeat

Kyler Murray With Season-High Two Touchdowns In Defeat

11 months ago

In the Cardinals' 27-16 loss to the Bears, Arizona quarterback Kyler Murray showcased his dual-threat prowess, going 23-for-37 with 208 yards, two touchdowns, and no interceptions. He orchestrated a nine-play, 75-yard drive culminating in a touchdown pass to James Conner late in the second quarter. Notably, eight of the Cardinals' initial nine drives struggled to surpass 30 yards, while Murray's 32 yards on five carries mirrored his weekly rushing average. Operating without top receiver Marquise Brown (heel), Murray faced challenges, yet his two touchdown passes marked a season-high. Looking ahead to Week 17 against the Eagles, Murray's performance may improve with the potential return of Brown, adding an optimistic outlook for fantasy managers. As such, Kyler remains a QB2 for Week 17.
