Aaron Rodgers News
Friday, September 18, 7:11 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers didn't have a great fantasy performance in Week 1, but it was encouraging to see him attempt 40 passes even with the team leading for most of the contest. He'll face a tougher challenge in Week 2 on the road against the New England Patriots, who allowed the 11th-fewest fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks last season. Furthermore, wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. (foot) was unable to practice on either Thursday or Friday, so Rodgers could be without one of his top targets. With new head coach Mike McCarthy calling the shots, Rodgers does have streaming potential and some upside as a QB2 in superflex formats, but fantasy managers would be wise to look elsewhere this week in what projects to be a low-scoring, defensive battle.

Kyler Murray News
Friday, September 18, 10:47 AM
Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kyler Murray (concussion) "felt good" but has been ruled out for the Week 2 game against the division-rival Chicago Bears, head coach Kevin O'Connell told Matthew Coller. Murray, who was limited in practice this week after suffering a scary concussion in the Week 1 season-opening win over the division-rival Green Bay Packers, is expected to clear the league's concussion protocol next week, which would put him on track to start in Week 3 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday, Sept. 27. The 29-year-old has not gotten off to a great start in his first year in Minnesota after missing most of the 2025 campaign in his final year with the Arizona Cardinals due to a foot injury. O'Connell said earlier this week that Murray will remain the team's starter under center when he is cleared from his concussion, despite veteran Carson Wentz throwing three touchdowns and leading the Vikings to a come-from-behind win last weekend.
