• Vikings' Kyler Murray: Week 6 Waiver Priority List

  1D ago • By Jamey Eisenberg

  Murray played his first full game with Justin Jefferson in Week 5 at New Orleans, and Murray scored a season-high 20.3 Fantasy points. He also ran for a season-best 51 yards. Minnesota has a bye in Week 6, and hopefully the Vikings will get Jordan Addison (hamstring) and T.J. Hockenson (concussion) back in Week 7 to see what this full offense looks like for Murray. For now, he's worth adding for up to 5 percent of your remaining FAAB.

• Vikings' Kyler Murray: Sharpest game of season in win

  3D ago • By RotoWire

  Murray completed 24 of 30 passes for 229 yards with a touchdown and no interceptions while adding 10 rushes for 51 yards in the Vikings' 23-13 win over the Saints on Sunday. He also recovered a fumble. Murray completed a season-high 80.0 percent of his passes while patiently carving up the Saints defense Sunday, and the returning Justin Jefferson unsurprisingly accounted for a significant chunk of the quarterback's production through the air with a 6-79-1 line on seven targets. Murray's yardage total was his second-highest of the season as well, trailing only the 247 he generated against the Dolphins in Week 4. The 2019 first overall pick may be starting to hit his stride in head coach Kevin O'Connell's offense, and he'll to further master the scheme during a Week 6 bye before returning to action in a Week 7 home matchup against the Colts on Sunday, Oct. 25.

• Vikings' Kyler Murray: QBs to Sit

  7D ago • By Jamey Eisenberg

  It's probably not fair to judge Murray without seeing him play a full game with Justin Jefferson (ankle), but Murray is averaging just 11.9 Fantasy points in his past two games against Tampa Bay and Miami. Jefferson could return in Week 5 at New Orleans, but Fantasy managers in one-quarterback leagues can't trust Murray right now. The Saints have also held Jared Goff (20.4 Fantasy points), Lamar Jackson (16.8) and Michael Penix Jr. (14.7) to modest production, and I would only start Murray in Superflex and two-quarterback leagues in Week 5.

• Vikings' Kyler Murray: Fails to produce TD in win over Miami

  10D ago • By RotoWire

  Murray completed 27 of 37 passes for 247 yards while adding 16 rushing yards on six carries in Sunday's 15-10 win over the Dolphins. All of Minnesota's points came from the boot of Will Reichard, as Murray failed to lead the team into the end zone but also avoided committing any turnovers. With the defense playing at a high level, the veteran QB has been able to get away with a lack of production, but a 1:2 TD:INT through two-plus starts and little additional yardage on the ground may lead to some job security issues with Carson Wentz having proven he can run the offense effectively while Murray was sidelined with a concussion. The former Cardinal will try to find a rhythm during a Week 5 road trip to New Orleans.

• Vikings' Kyler Murray: Tosses first TD with Vikings

  17D ago • By RotoWire

  Murray (concussion) completed 15 of 29 passes for 168 yards, one touchdown and one interception and took two carries for 17 yards during Sunday's 23-16 win at Tampa Bay. In his first game action since suffering a concussion in the first quarter of a Week 1 victory against the Packers, Murray lost No. 1 WR Justin Jefferson (ankle) in the first half Sunday but largely avoided any game-changing mistakes while leading the Vikings to a 3-0 record on the season. Murray's first TD pass with Minnesota was a 41-yard connection with Jordan Addison late in the second quarter, while his pick well inside Vikings territory in the middle of the third quarter resulted in only a made Chase McLaughlin field-goal attempt for Tampa Bay. Murray's next chance for game action is next Sunday versus the Dolphins.
