49ers to start QB Mac Jones again in Week 9

Oct 31, 2025

Mac Jones will start on Sunday, but Brock Purdy could be available to play, 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan said. Purdy is listed as questionable.

Fantasy Impact:

This is (once again) a downgrade for all 49ers pass-catchers, as well as Christian McCaffrey, who is a pseudo wide receiver as it is. Mac Jones should be considered a SuperFlex, top-20 option.

Jaguars WR/CB Travis Hunter (knee) was hurt during practice Thursday. He will be put on IR and miss at least four games, HC Liam Coen said Friday morning.

Fantasy Impact:

Brutal run out for what has been an underwhelming two-way experiment to this point in the season. Hunter is in drop territory for smaller leagues and is honestly in that same consideration for deeper leagues, considering he's only broken double-digit points once this season.

Cardinals "preparing" for Kyler Murray to start Week 9

The Arizona Cardinals are preparing quarterback Kyler Murray to start Monday night against the Dallas Cowboys, coach Jonathan Gannon said Thursday. Murray missed Arizona's past two games with a foot injury and was able to rest it longer during the Cardinals' bye last week.

Related Players: Jacoby Brissett

Fantasy Impact:

Murray's in a great spot to come into fantasy relevance against a Cowboys defense that ranks dead last in QB aFPA. Even if Murray doesn't scramble around a ton with a rehabbing foot, he should still be in easy consideration as a QB1.
