Who Should I Start? Matthew Stafford or Kyler Murray

Tuesday, August 19, 1:30 PM

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford (back) is practicing again on Tuesday, according to Adam Grosbard of the Los Angeles Daily News. Stafford practiced for the first time at training camp this summer on Monday after recovering from an aggravated disc in his back. The 37-year-old was extremely limited and made only around 20 throws on Monday as the Rams ease him back in. Head coach Sean McVay said Stafford's workload is "a very fluid situation and demands flexibility." He almost certainly won't play in the preseason finale this Saturday against the Cleveland Browns, but the plan is to have him "upright" for the Week 1 regular-season opener on Sept. 7 against the Houston Texans. The Rams have been optimistic all along that Stafford will be ready for Week 1, although it sounds like he may not be 100%, making him an even riskier low-end QB2 selection in superflex fantasy leagues.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. is approaching year two differently from his rookie season, and his connection with quarterback Kyler Murray continues to strengthen. Harrison entered training camp physically transformed, packing on about ten pounds of muscle, and he has worked closely with wide receivers coach Drew Terrell, adding nuance to his route running. Harrison and Murray connected several times in a recent joint practice against the Denver Broncos, showing enough for head coach Jonathan Gannon to rest his starters in the team's second preseason game. Harrison's first year in Arizona was solid, if unspectacular. However, he left many drafters feeling burnt after seeing the highest ADP ever for a rookie wideout. He is currently being drafted as the WR15, but he could easily turn in a WR1 season if he can earn the same year two trust from Murray that we saw from teammate Trey McBride in 2024.
