According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (foot), who is not expected to play in Sunday's game against the Packers, is in line to return for the Monday night meeting with the Cowboys on November 3, after the team's Week 8 bye. Murray appeared to have a chance to suit up in Week 7. However, the Cardinals will give him a few more weeks to heal. Assuming Murray is officially ruled out, Jacoby Brissett will be back under center after throwing for 320 yards, two touchdowns, and one pick off 27-for-44 passing in the loss to the Colts in Week 6. With a difficult matchup on the horizon versus a tough Packers defense, Brissett isn't the safest fantasy option in most formats. Still, with so many injuries at the position, he will have some value for those participating in Superflex setups.

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow (toe), who suffered a serious turf-toe injury back in Week 2, is on track to return from Injured Reserve in mid-December, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Burrow is a month into a three-month recovery after having surgery for a Grade 3 turf-toe injury. Burrow has been doing well in his rehab and has not had any setbacks, which means he's still in play to return at the tail end of the regular season if the Bengals still have something to play for. He has told people he has every intention of playing again this year, but he just needs Cincinnati to stay in the hunt in the meantime. The 28-year-old isn't guaranteed to be in play for the fantasy playoffs, so managers shouldn't feel obligated to hold onto him in redraft leagues. Jake Browning struggled with turnovers (eight picks in four games) after replacing Burrow, leading Cincy to trade for veteran Joe Flacco to try and keep the team's playoff hopes alive.
