Kyler Murray News
Friday, October 2, 12:56 PM
After a mostly lackluster first full game with the Minnesota Vikings, quarterback Kyler Murray faces an excellent matchup against the struggling Miami Dolphins on Sunday. The former Arizona Cardinal looked jittery and didn't provide much of an immediate upgrade to a Minnesota passing game that has thrown for fewer yards than any other team, but he'll step into friendlier circumstances against the Dolphins this week. Miami is 30th in the NFL in pressure percentage, still doesn't have a sack this season, and has allowed points on 50% of their opponents' possessions. Vikings receiver Justin Jefferson (ankle) is out again after missing the majority of last week's game, but the matchup is good enough that Murray is worth considering in most formats against the Dolphins. He's RotoBaller's QB13 for Week 4.

Jalen Hurts News
Saturday, October 3, 2:43 AM
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts was one of the most consistent QB1s in fantasy football for four years in a row, ending with last year, as he was inside the top-8 in points per game at the position each year from 2021 until 2025. Regression may finally be hitting for the Eagles starting QB, who is without his top wideout from 2022 until last year. WR A.J. Brown (ankle) is now with the New England Patriots, and while Hurts has thrown for just over 200 passing yards per game, right around his average in recent years, his rushing production has taken a downturn. Double-digit rushing touchdowns in each season from 2021-2024 and eight rushing scores in 2025 have given way to just one in three games so far. The tush push is no longer the cheat code play it was for the Eagles in previous seasons, likely due to the Eagles offensive line losing talent at some positions and regressing heavily in others. Hurts is thus a low-end QB1 for Week 4 against the Rams, as his biggest fantasy football asset, his rushing upside, no longer appears to be enough to boost him into elite week-to-week scoring potential.
