In Carson Wentz's first start since QB Kyler Murray went down with a hamstring injury, he completed just eight of 25 pass attempts for 2 INTs and a fumble. He ended Monday Night Football with the lowest scoring performance by a QB this season, ultimately being benched in favor of QB Max Brosmer.

Brosmer quickly outplayed Wentz, completing six of seven pass attempts for 58 yards leading to 2.3 PPR points.
It’s a performance that hampered any potential high-ranking finish for the Vikings' weapons. RB Jordan Mason led the backfield with 6.2 PPR points for an RB38 finish while WR Justin Jefferson led pass catchers with 8.8 PPR points for a WR42 finish to Week 9.
This likely spells the end of any remaining possible Wentz's appearances, at least for the rest of the season. Even with Murray heading towards a consecutive absence for their Week 11 clash with the 49ers.
That leaves Brosmer as the QB1, but The Vikings’ QB situation will be closely monitored leading up to Tuesday’s trade deadline.
