Who Should I Start? Kyler Murray or Jayden Daniels

Wednesday, November 5, 3:46 PM

Arizona Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon said on Wednesday that quarterback Kyler Murray (foot) will go on Injured Reserve, according to Darren Urban of AZCardinals.com. "He needs to get healthy," Gannon said. Murray will be forced to miss at least four games, meaning that he won't be eligible to return until Week 14 against the division-rival Los Angeles Rams on Sunday, Dec. 7. The 28-year-old has been sidelined since suffering a mid-foot sprain in the Week 5 loss to the Tennessee Titans. The two-time Pro Bowler didn't look good in his five starts before getting hurt, going 110-for-161 for 962 yards, six touchdowns, and three interceptions. Veteran Jacoby Brissett has elevated the offense in his three starts in place of Murray, and if he continues to play well, Murray may remain on the bench when he returns from IR.

According to NFL Insider Ian Rapoport, Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels' MRI and medical opinions revealed positive news, as his dislocated left elbow is not as severe as initially anticipated. There was no ligament damage & he won't need surgery, and Daniels will not be immediately placed on Injured Reserve. What a sigh of relief that is for Daniel's long-term outlook and dynasty fantasy managers. Based on initial reports, this was a gruesome on-field injury where medical experts were working to stabilize his arm. While it's too quick to jump to conclusions that he will potentially be back in the 2025 season, Commanders fans and dynasty managers can feel some peace knowing there wasn't any ligament damage or what appears to be an extended absence beyond next season. Marcus Mariota will be under center while Daniels is sidelined, and most pass-catchers such as Terry McLaurin (quad), Deebo Samuel Sr., and Zach Ertz will likely see a dip in their production without Daniels running the offense.
