Who Should I Start? Kyler Murray or Malik Willis

Saturday, October 18, 9:57 PM

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.

Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said that backup quarterback Malik Willis will play in the preseason finale on Saturday against the Seattle Seahawks. The Packers also plan on playing some or most of their starters, at least for a little bit. We would be surprised if starting QB Jordan Love (thumb) plays this weekend after having a minor surgery on his left (non-throwing) thumb last week. The 26-year-old Willis went 6-for-14 for 83 yards on the first three possessions of the second preseason game last weekend against the Indianapolis Colts. Love is fully expected to be ready for the Week 1 regular-season opener in early September, so Willis is primed to open the season as Green Bay's backup signal-caller. The former third-rounder by the Tennessee Titans in 2022 played in seven games in his first year with the Packers in 2024 and led the team to two wins with Love sidelined by injury.
