Should You Start or Sit Kyler Murray in Week 7?
Murray is an interesting option this week, as he’s largely been an all-or-nothing producer, and the potential of a dud increases dramatically should Marvin Harrison Jr. (concussion) be ruled out.
This season, he only has two finishes inside the top 15 at the position, but both of those were top-five weeks that likely helped you lock up a win. The Chargers defense has been stout, having allowed more than 13 fantasy points to a quarterback just twice this season, but in both of those situations, the signal caller cleared six points with their legs (Bo Nix and Justin Fields).
I have Murray ranked at the top of my low-end QB1 tier that extends down to QB13 Kirk Cousins. You won’t be alone if you’re not feeling great about your quarterback position this week.
