Who Should I Start? Kyler Murray or Quentin Johnston

Saturday, October 11, 9:58 PM

According to NFL Media's Ian Rapoport, the Arizona Cardinals "are leaving the door open" for Kyler Murray (foot) to suit up on Sunday versus the Colts. However, the team is realistically "preparing" for Jacoby Brissett to start in Week 6, although a final decision won't come until Sunday morning. The signal-caller is reportedly dealing with a "mid-foot sprain," with Rapoport adding that it's "a version of a Lisfranc injury." Unfortunately, that could sideline Murray for more than just one week. As far as Brissett is concerned, he's had some quality performances over the years. In 89 regular-season games, he's thrown for 11,400 yards, 53 touchdowns, and 24 interceptions, adding 15 more scores on the ground. With that said, Brissett has some value for managers in deeper Superflex formats despite a tough matchup on the horizon, especially with injuries at the quarterback position and a few teams getting the week off.

ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reports that Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston (hamstring) is trending toward being inactive for Sunday's road meeting with the Miami Dolphins. Johnston picked up a hamstring injury that limited him at practice leading up to Sunday's outing, leaving him with a questionable tag. However, it appears he won't be healthy enough to suit up against the hosting Dolphins. Fellow wideouts Keenan Allen and Ladd McConkey figure to pick up a few extra looks in his absence, while rookies Tre Harris and Keandre Lambert-Smith should benefit from an uptick in snaps. Tight end Oronde Gadsden could also be in for an elevated workload with Johnston sidelined.
