Quarterback
Kyler Murray (TRUST): Murray stayed hot last week against the Rams, closing as the QB9 (22.6 points). He threw for a season “low” of 8.4 yards per attempt and 268 yards, but added a pair of passing touchdowns and 39 yards rushing to his line.
The 49ers have allowed 19 or more fantasy points to all four quarterbacks they have faced and their multi-year struggles with mobile quarterbacks has continued as they have already allowed 82 rushing yards and a score to Jalen Hurts and 26 yards and a score to Russell Wilson to open the year.
In four games against the 49ers, Murray has rushed for 34 yards, 67 yards and a touchdown, 91 yards and a touchdown, and 75 yards.
