Who Should I Start? Kyler Murray or Dillon Gabriel

Wednesday, October 29, 11:49 AM

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (foot) missed his team's last two games before their Week 8 bye due to a mid-foot sprain. However, Murray is reportedly on track to return to the field for Arizona's Week 9 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys. Murray was having a down season before getting hurt. Across five games in 2025, the 28-year-old has recorded 961 passing yards, six touchdowns, and three interceptions. Still, Murray remains a threat with his legs (173 rushing yards, one touchdown) and gets a very favorable matchup on Monday night against Dallas. The Cowboys currently rank dead last in the NFL in passing yards (2,185) and passing touchdowns (20) allowed. If Murray can return against Dallas, he profiles as a low-end fantasy QB1 in Week 9.

Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski told the media that Dillon Gabriel will remain the team's starting quarterback following their Week 9 bye. Gabriel struggled in Sunday's loss to the Patriots, completing 60 percent of his passes for just 156 yards, two touchdowns, and two interceptions. The rookie had struggled through his three previous starts, but the lone bright spot during that span was the fact that Gabriel had not turned over the football. That streak came to an end in Week 8 as the Patriots picked him off twice. Cleveland's quarterback room also features Shedeur Sanders (back) and Bailey Zappe, neither of whom has played an NFL snap in 2025. Gabriel will have at least one more opportunity to save his job when the 2-6 Browns face the New York Jets in Week 10.
