ARI QB Kyler Murray - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 @ Green Bay Packers
It had been a couple of "meh" weeks out of Kyler Murray, but he is now back in our good graces after taking off for a 7-83-1 rushing line to pad a 24.1 fantasy outing in Week 5. His passing stats were once again less-than-ideal, as he has not eclipsed 207 yards since Week 2. The Packers defense is a nominal matchup, but the offense should be pushed throughout, which makes Murray a safe top-10 option again in Week 6.

ARI QB Kyler Murray - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 @ San Francisco 49ers
Murray offers far more upside than the pocket passers that he was going well after in drafts and should be considered a bona fide QB1, as a dual-threat quarterback who can single-handedly when you weeks. He has delivered 164 yards on the ground through four weeks, and has been locked in with rookie WR Marvin Harrison Jr. Murray is an easy high-end QB1 click in Week 5.

ARI QB Kyler Murray - Week 2 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 2 vs. Los Angeles Rams
Murray offers far more upside than the pocket passers that he was going well after in drafts and should be considered a bona fide QB1, as a dual-threat quarterback who can single-handedly when you weeks. He delivered a 5-57 line on the ground in Week 1, but should see more success through the air moving forward, with far more work going Marvin Harrison Jr.'s way.

ARI QB Kyler Murray - Week 1 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 1 @ Buffalo Bills
Even though Murray is short in stature, there's no reason to label him "injury-prone" just because of two freak injuries. He offers far more upside than the pocket passers that he was going well after in drafts and should be considered a bona fide QB1, as a dual-threat quarterback who can single-handedly when you weeks. One of those weeks could be here in Buffalo in a possible shootout.

ARI QB Kyler Murray - 2024 Fantasy Football Outlook

Fantasy Upside

With a below-average supporting cast, Kyler Murray returned in Week 10 from a torn ACL and preceded to clock in as the QB10 in points per game (18.3) until the end of the season. In response, the team handed him a legit WR1 in Marvin Harrison Jr., a strong backup RB in Trey Benson, a guard, and another tight end by the time the third round of the NFL Draft ended. Despite the ACL recovery, Murray would finish the season with 244 rushing yards and three touchdowns, which shows us what kind of ceiling he could have as he heads into 2024 fully healthy. The boost in offensive weapons and a full year under this Drew Petzing offense could equate to a top-6 positional finish.

Fantasy Downside
The ACL issue was not the first run-in with injuries for the diminutive quarterback in the NFL. In 2021, the year before the knee injury, Murray missed three games with an ankle sprain, a sign that mounting lower-body issues could eventually sap some of the rushing prowess that makes him a fantasy target. Murray had 20 designed QB runs upon his return last year (2.5/game); those could be reduced now that James Conner has a legitimate backup, with Benson alleviating the workload.

2024 Bottom Line
Even though Murray is short in stature, there's no reason to label him "injury-prone" just because of two freak injuries. He offers far more upside than the pocket passers he is going well after in drafts and should be considered a bona fide QB1, as a dual-threat quarterback who can single-handedly when you weeks.
