Who Should I Start? Aaron Rodgers or Kyler Murray

Saturday, November 29, 11:19 AM

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (wrist) missed last week's contest but is set to return at home against the Buffalo Bills. While Buffalo has been vulnerable on the ground, its pass defense has been elite, limiting opposing quarterbacks to the fewest passing yards, the fourth-fewest passing touchdowns, and the fourth-fewest fantasy points per game. Unless the Steelers find themselves trailing early, they're likely to lean heavily on the running game with Jaylen Warren and Kenneth Gainwell. This makes Rodgers tough to trust for fantasy purposes, especially if he is limited at all with his left wrist fracture. Fantasy managers should view Rodgers as a low-end QB2 who is only viable in 2QB and superflex formats in Week 13.

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (foot) is eligible to return from Injured Reserve as early as Week 14, and while the team prepares for a Week 13 matchup with the Buccaneers, he was spotted putting in work off to the side with some of the team's athletic trainers. Veteran Jacoby Brissett has been the team's starter since Week 6 and has reinvigorated Arizona's passing offense. Brissett has averaged 314.5 passing yards across his six starts, while throwing at least two touchdowns in five of six. Trey McBride is currently the top-scoring fantasy tight end in the league, and with Marvin Harrioson Jr. (appendix) missing the past two games following an emergency appendectomy, Brissett has transformed Michael Wilson and Greg Dortch into week winners. While the result in the win-loss column has not been as favorable, it seems unlikely that Murray will reclaim the starting job anytime soon, and it's still possible he's already taken his last snap with the team.
