Who Should I Start? Kyler Murray or Cameron Ward

Saturday, November 8, 10:56 AM

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (foot) could be traded or released next offseason as his future with the team is in limbo, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Murray maintained a 68.1 percent completion rate with 962 passing yards, 173 rushing yards, seven total touchdowns, and four turnovers through the first five games this season. He then missed three games due to injury, and his absence was extended even further this week as Arizona placed him on injured reserve. Although Murray is sidelined due to injury, there has been some speculation about whether he would have still been benched for Jacoby Brissett even if healthy. Regardless of the behind-the-scenes details, Schefter's report paints a clear picture of a potential separation between the Cardinals and their former No. 1 overall selection. Arizona must make a decision on his future by the fifth day of the 2026 league year next March, when an additional $19.5 million becomes guaranteed. The team's options are to release him, keep him, or try to find a trade partner that is willing to take on the final two years of his expensive contract. One source told Schefter that "separation is imminent" between the two parties, but there's still plenty of time for that sentiment to change between now and March. In the meantime, it'll be Brissett under center for the Cardinals.

Tennessee Titans rookie quarterback Cameron Ward went 24-for-37 for 194 yards with one touchdown in the crushing 16-13 loss on Sunday to the Houston Texans in Week 11. Ward also had three carries for a career high of 33 rushing yards with one lost fumble. The 23-year-old first overall pick put together his best fantasy performance of his young career, scoring over 14 fantasy points. Ward threw his lone touchdown to veteran wide receiver Van Jefferson on Sunday, making it his third game in four weeks throwing a touchdown. However, Ward had another turnover, bringing his total to 12 this season. Ward will once again be a QB3 in fantasy in a difficult matchup against a top-ranked Seattle Seahawks defense in Week 12.
