The Cardinals selected Miami QB Carson Beck in Round 3 of the 2026 NFL Draft. A former four-star recruit, Beck started at Georgia in 2023 and 2024. He thrived in 2023 alongside Brock Bowers and Ladd McConkey, throwing for 3,941 yards with 24 TDs and 6 INTs. His play slipped in 2024, with 12 INTs and an elbow injury that required surgery. Beck transferred to Miami for 2025 and rebounded, leading the Hurricanes to a national title appearance while posting 3,813 yards, 30 TDs, and 12 INTs. The efficiency profile is mixed. Among 15 Combine QBs, he tied for second in adjusted completion rate (79.0%) but ranked 12th in aDOT (7.6), 11th in Big Time Throw rate (3.3%), and 14th in rushing production. At 23, Beck enters the league as a polished pocket passer without much rushing upside.

Cardinals QB Kyler Murray will not return this season, according to HC Jonathan Gannon. Gannon commented that Murray isn’t progressing as the team hoped and thus will not be available at all this season. Murray suffered a mid-foot injury in Week 5 and was placed on IR on November 5th. Jacoby Brissett will QB the team for the rest of the season.

Cardinals QB Kyler Murray (foot) missed his second straight practice on Thursday. He played through this injury last week but seems to be in real danger of missing Sunday's game vs. the Colts. We'll see if Murray practices on Friday and then how he's listed on the final injury report. If Murray can't go, Arizona would turn to QB Jacoby Brissett. He started the first five games of last season for the Patriots, completing just 58.5% of his passes at 5.2 yards per attempt. Brissett would be a tangible downgrade for WR Marvin Harrison Jr. and TE Trey McBride.

Cardinals QB Kyler Murray suffered a foot injury in the third quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Titans. He headed back to the locker room and is officially questionable to return. We'll update Murray's status when we know more. QB Jacoby Brissett replaced Murray.

Update: Murray returned after missing just a few plays.

Patriots QB Drake Maye has cleared concussion protocol and been removed from the Week 9 injury report. He'll start Sunday's game vs. the Titans. Maye has turned in QB8 and QB7 fantasy finishes in his two full games this season. He threw for 23 yards and ran for 46 yards and a score in a little more than a quarter of action before getting knocked out last week. The Titans rank 14th in adjusted fantasy points allowed to QBs and will be without top CB L'Jarius Sneed tomorrow. Maye projects as a strong QB2 and a lower-end spot-start option in 1-QB leagues.

Patriots QB Drake Maye has outplayed QB Jacoby Brissett according to HC Jerod Mayo. With Brissett suffering a right shoulder injury in yesterday's preseason along with Maye outplaying Brissett, the Patriots appear close to having Maye start the season as the starter.

Patriots QB Jacoby Brissett took one drive in their preseason game against the Washington Commanders. The team reports that Brissett sustained a right shoulder injury and is questionable. With only 14 days until the Patriots season opener, his status is currently unknown.

Commanders QB Jacoby Brissett hurt a hamstring in Friday's practice and is now questionable for Sunday's game against the 49ers. We'll have to watch his status through the weekend. No Brissett would mean another start for Sam Howell. The San Francisco matchup hasn't been awful for QB scoring but has certainly been negative. Howell, meanwhile, has been awful over his past three games. He has finished three straight weeks with 127 passing yards or less, getting pulled in each of the past two games. He doesn't belong in any fantasy lineups, and his recent performance would mean bad news for Washington pass-catchers vs. Brissett starting. Watch for rankings updates as the situation becomes clearer.

Dolphins QB Jacoby Brissett injured his right knee in the 3rd quarter of Thursday night's game vs. the Ravens. That's forced QB Tua Tagovailoa onto the field, despite his left finger injury. We'll update Brissett's status when we know more.

Update: Brissett has been cleared to return, according to the NFL Network broadcast crew, but Tagovailoa is in the game.

Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa is dealing with a small fracture in the middle finger of his throwing hand, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports. He's active but only as QB Jacoby Brissett's backup vs. the Texans today. While this isn't a long-term injury, per Schefter, Tagovailoa's availability for this Thursday night's game vs. the Ravens is "in question." We'll keep an eye on him this coming week.

Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa suffered a rib injury in the 1st quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Bills. He was in obvious pain and took a cart back to the locker room. Tagovailoa is officially questionable to return. QB Jacoby Brissett is in for Miami.
