Lamar Jackson News
Sunday, September 13, 6:27 PM
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson continued to show why he is considered one of the best in the game on Sunday. Jackson came ready to play during the season opener against the Indianapolis Colts. He completed 17-of-25 passing attempts for 324 yards with one touchdown and zero interceptions. Jackson also rushed the ball seven times for 40 yards and another touchdown during the Week 1 victory. The Ravens have a new offensive coordinator in Declan Doyle, but that didn't impact Jackson's play on the field. When healthy, few players in the game can match the talent level of Jackson. He'll remain an elite fantasy option heading into the Week 2 matchup versus the New Orleans Saints.

Kyler Murray News
Thursday, September 17, 1:27 PM
Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kyler Murray (concussion) was listed as limited in practice on Thursday for the second straight day this week, according to Sean Hammond of The Chicago Tribune. Murray suffered a scary concussion early in his Vikings debut in the Week 1 season-opening win over the division-rival Green Bay Packers and was placed in the league's concussion protocol. Veteran signal-caller Carson Wentz tossed three touchdown passes and led the Vikings to a comeback last weekend, and he will be in line to start in Week 2 against the division-rival Chicago Bears if Murray does not get the green light to return this weekend. The Vikings have not ruled Murray out yet, but the overwhelming belief is that he will miss at least one game due to his head injury. The former first-rounder came into the 2026 campaign as a popular bounce-back candidate in his new digs in Minnesota, but he is off to a bad start due to injury. The good news is that head coach Kevin O'Connell plans to stick with Murray as the team's starting QB once he is cleared.
