It’s been difficult to rank Kyler Murray at times this season, including Week 10 at the Jets. He’s played well in tough matchups and struggled at times in others, but hopefully, this is one of his better performances at New York.

In Week 9, we saw the worst of Murray, who scored a season-low 4.8 Fantasy points against the Bears. He only passed for 154 yards with no touchdowns, and he ran for just 6 yards.

But in the two previous games against the Chargers and Dolphins, Murray scored at least 22.2 Fantasy points, and that’s the quarterback we hope shows up against the Jets. As of Wednesday morning, I have him ranked at No. 13, which makes him a low-end starter in all leagues.

Now, this isn’t an easy matchup on paper since the Jets are No. 4 in fewest Fantasy points allowed to opposing quarterbacks, and C.J. Stroud was held to 11.5 Fantasy points against New York in Week 9. But prior to that, Josh Allen, Russell Wilson, and the combination of Drake Maye and Jacoby Brissett each scored at least 19.9 Fantasy points against the Jets.

Allen, Wilson, and Maye all had rushing touchdowns, and Maye ran for 46 yards and a touchdown in the first half before suffering a concussion in Week 8. I’m hopeful Murray will make plays with his legs — and plenty of them — in this game.

For the most part, I consider Murray an auto start at quarterback. I’d love for him to be more consistent and avoid what happened against the Bears, but that’s not realistic. That said, he has too much upside to ignore, and I’m hopeful that upside is on display against the Jets this week.
