Who Should I Start? Kyler Murray or Bo Nix

Thursday, October 9, 2:54 PM

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (foot) missed Thursday's practice, marking his second straight absence and casting serious doubt on his availability for Sunday's matchup against the Indianapolis Colts. Head coach Jonathan Gannon told reporters Wednesday that Murray remains "day-to-day," but his limited mobility could make it difficult for him to suit up against a Colts defense that ranks among the league's best at sacking quarterbacks and forcing takeaways. If Murray is unable to go, veteran Jacoby Brissett would draw the start and lead the offense on the road. Fantasy managers should prepare for Murray to be inactive and look to other streaming options in Week 6, as Brissett offers limited fantasy upside against a strong Indianapolis defense.

Denver Broncos Quarterback Bo Nix had a solid outing in which he faced the undefeated reigning Super Bowl Champion Eagles on Sunday. While he ended the day with the win after showing impressive game management to close the comeback window on Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts and company, he completed 61.5% of passes for 242 yards and a touchdown while rushing for 22 yards on three attempts in Sunday's 21-17 win. There was quite a bit of duress in the pocket as Nix was sacked twice, but he showed good poise in clutch moments down the stretch. This should inject confidence in him as he will face the New York Jets in Week 6, who just gave up four touchdowns through the air to the Dallas Cowboys.
