Max Brosmer

Kevin O’Connell ruled Kyler Murray out against Buffalo with a hamstring strain and described him as week-to-week. Carson Wentz will start Monday night, with Max Brosmer serving as the backup.

Wentz is now a confirmed QB2 option for Superflex managers, including those replacing Murray. Jefferson remains a WR1, Addison a WR3/FLEX, and Hockenson a lower-end TE1. Minnesota’s secondary receivers remain difficult to trust. Murray can stay on benches where roster space allows, but managers should prepare for the possibility that his absence extends beyond one game.
