Kyler Murray Looking to be Better 'Off-Script' This Season

Sunday, June 22, 3:37 PM

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray noted in an interview with ESPN that he wants the team to improve this season in situations when the original play call breaks down. "It's just we have to be better on off-scheduled plays because, obviously, I have that ability to make extend plays, and we have the guys to go do it off schedule," said the former Oklahoma Sooner. "So, I believe that's an area we got to be better at." Arizona is looking for Murray to make a jump this season, and they're hoping he can get back to some of the improvisational tendencies he displayed when he bolstered WR DeAndre Hopkins as one of his weapons. The 27-year-old has been put in a situation to succeed, though it hinges on his own development. He's one of the more intriguing mid-round QBs due to his rushing upside.

Drake Maye Trying Not to Run as Much?

Sunday, July 27, 11:22 AM

New England Patriots second-year quarterback Drake Maye notably shared that one of his top goals in 2025 is to potentially not run as much as he did in his rookie season, when he rushed for 421 yards on 54 carries for 7.8 yards per tote, according to ESPN's Mike Reiss. "Remaining a passer longer when I scramble, I think that's big," Maye said. "I feel like I had times last year where I had some guys deep that I may have missed them or took off running instead." It's not exactly what fantasy managers want to hear. The 22-year-old didn't have a lot to work with in the passing game in his first year in the NFL. The Patriots have given him more weapons this year, mainly with WR1 Stefon Diggs, which could make up for fewer runs from the second-year signal-caller. Fantasy managers should target Maye as a midrange QB2 this year.
