FantasyPros Articles on Kyler Murray
From the article
I'm not hopeful that Murray begins the 2026 season with a monster game, though. Last year, Green Bay allowed the sixth-fewest yards per attempt, the 14th-lowest passing success rate, and the ninth-fewest fantasy points per dropback to quarterbacks.
STACKED’s take
Murray's poor efficiency metrics and Gannon's two-high scheme make Week 1 a fade.
Derek Brown is not hopeful that Murray begins the 2026 season with a monster game. Last year, Murray played only five games before a foot injury sidelined him; in that limited sample, he posted the seventh-lowest yards per attempt, fourth-lowest aDOT, and fifth-lowest hero throw rate. Against Green Bay in Week 1, the Packers allowed the sixth-fewest yards per attempt, 14th-lowest passing success rate, and ninth-fewest fantasy points per dropback to quarterbacks. Additionally, Jonathon Gannon's defensive scheme—which utilizes two high at the third-highest rate (57.6% since 2023)—presents a matchup concern; over the last two seasons, Murray has ranked 14th-lowest in yards per attempt, 13th-lowest in highly accurate throw rate, and ninth-fewest in fantasy points per dropback against two-high coverage.
