Scouting report

ARI QB Kyler Murray - Week 10 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 10 at Los Angeles Rams

Kyler Murray threw for 175 yards and a pair of touchdowns in a loss to Seattle last week. He also added 60 yards on the ground, turning in a solid fantasy outing overall. Murray now has 359 yards on the ground and he continues to pad his passing numbers with rushing production.

This week, Murray faces a Rams defense that ranks ninth in aFPA to opposing quarterbacks. Murray is dealing with a hamstring issue, but he’s expected to be good to go. Despite the tough matchup, Murray is a must-start given his production on the ground and the general inconsistency at the position this year. Despite uneven performances by Murray and the team, he’s still the QB6 on the year. Start him.

Update: Murray is a game time call, and looking unlikely to start. It's best to look elsewhere for this week.

ARI QB Kyler Murray - Week 9 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 9 vs. Seattle Seahawks

Kyler Murray had his most prolific passing day of the season last week against the Vikings, throwing for 326 yards and three touchdowns, although he also added a pair of interceptions. Murray also had 36 rushing yards on six attempts, and he now has 299 yards and a pair of touchdowns on the ground this season. In a rough season for fantasy quarterbacks, Murray ranks sixth.

This week, Murray faces a Seahawks defense that ranks 18th in aFPA to opposing quarterbacks and just held Daniel Jones in check. Murray had 222 yards and a pick against them a few weeks ago, though he ran for 100 yards in that game as well. Murray’s rushing production raises his floor in any given week, making him a must-start. We have him as a top-five option this week and he should be active in all leagues.

ARI QB Kyler Murray - Week 8 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 8 at Minnesota Vikings

Kyler Murray had a pedestrian game against the Saints last week, throwing for 204 yards and a touchdown while adding 30 yards on the ground. Murray’s numbers haven’t been eye-popping, but his rushing production – 37.6 yards per game – make him a viable QB1 option each week. He’s the QB6 right now in a strange fantasy quarterback season.

This week, Murray faces a Vikings defense that ranks 18th in aFPA to opposing quarterbacks. The Vikings can put up points, so the passing volume for Murray might be heightened. Fantasy managers shouldn’t hesitate keeping him active and we have ranked as a top-five quarterback this week.

ARI QB Kyler Murray - Week 7 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 vs. New Orleans Saints

Kyler Murray had only 222 yards and an interception against the Seahawks last week in a disappointing game for both offenses. The Cardinals also suffered their fourth loss of the season, although Murray salvaged his fantasy day with 100 yards on 10 rush attempts. Murray is always a threat to supplement his passing numbers with rushing production, so he’ll never fall too far down the rankings as long as he stays healthy.

Murray should get on track this week against the Saints. New Orleans ranks 22nd in aFPA to opposing quarterbacks and while Murray will miss his old college teammate Marquise Brown, he’ll welcome back DeAndre Hopkins to lineup. Murray was better with Hopkins in the lineup a year ago, and they’ll look to rekindle some of that magic in Week 7. Start him.

ARI QB Kyler Murray - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 at Seattle Seahawks

Kyler Murray had a decent enough game against the Eagles last week, throwing for 250 yards, a touchdown, and a pick, but adding 42 yards on the ground. Murray now has eight touchdowns – including two rushing – and three interceptions and stands as the QB5 in fantasy points this year.

Murray should do well against the Seahawks this week. Seattle ranks 29th in aFPA to opposing quarterbacks, and the game could end up being a shootout behind the surprising play of Geno Smith. If these two offenses get humming, Murray could post 300+ passing yards for just the second time this year. Start him.

ARI QB Kyler Murray - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 vs. Philadelphia Eagles

Kyler Murray isn’t off to the blistering start he had last year at this time, but he’s quietly going about his business and is the QB6 in fantasy right now. Last week, he had 207 passing yards to go with a pair of touchdowns and an interception, but he also had his second rushing touchdown of the year. He’s had at least 26 rushing yards in all but one game this year, giving him a nice fantasy floor in most contests.

This week, Murray faces an Eagles defense that ranks second in aFPA to opposing quarterbacks this season. While the matchup is concerning, this game could feature a lot of passing for the Cardinals as they try to keep up with the high-octane Philadelphia offense. As such, Murray’s volume may increase, giving him upside. We have him ranked inside our top-10 quarterbacks this week, and he should remain active in all leagues.

ARI QB Kyler Murray - Week 4 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 4 at Carolina Panthers

Kyler Murray had 314 yards last week against the Rams, but failed to find the end zone and only rushed for eight yards on two attempts. Those numbers need to get better for Murray to be worth his lofty draft capital in fantasy leagues, though he’s faced some decent teams thus far. The Rams have a solid defense, the Giants have been feistier than expected, and the Chiefs look better on that side of the ball as well.

This week, Murray faces another defense that has been better than advertised. They’ve mostly held opposing quarterbacks in check, though Murray is much more talented than the trio of Jacoby Brissett, Jameis Winston, and Daniel Jones they’ve faced thus far. Start Murray in all leagues, expecting him to find the end zone a bit more, but temper expectations against a team allowing 19.7 points per game – T-13th in the league.
