Should I Keep Kyler Murray?
HEYTC AIKyler Murray remains a dual‑threat QB with solid per‑game production in 2025 and a passing attack that ranked among the league’s better units, keeping him firmly fantasy‑relevant in dynasty. His rushing floor and organizational commitment make him a strong long‑term QB1/2, though not in the elite tier.
Kyler Murray Fantasy Projections & Matchup Analysis
If his keeper cost is in the mid rounds (QB10 range or later), he is a clear value to retain; in early rounds where only true elite QBs justify the cost, he is more replaceable and could be shopped for value. In 2QB/superflex formats, his per‑game 2025 output and rushing usage make him worth a premium keeper price as a secure long‑term starter.
The Cardinals finished 8–9 in 2025 and missed the playoffs but showed offensive progress, ranking seventh in passing yards with Murray sharing the position group’s 4,328 yards and 29 TDs. Jonathan Gannon’s staff and QB coach Drew Terrell/Woolfork have delivered back‑to‑back productive seasons from Murray, suggesting a relatively stable situation with room for incremental improvement rather than major overhaul.
- Arizona’s passing offense was top‑10 by yardage/efficiency in 2025, with Murray and Jacoby Brissett combining for 4,328 yards and 29 TDs under a stable coaching staff.
- Murray’s 2025 per‑game line (around 192 passing yards, 1.2 passing TDs, and 34 rushing yards) preserves a strong fantasy floor even when passing TD variance isn’t elite.
- He is under contract as the clear franchise QB, and the team has invested in offensive line help and passing game development around him, supporting multi‑year stability.
