Kyler Murray: ruled out for Week 2 with concussion

THE FACT. Minnesota ruled Kyler Murray out of Sunday's game against Chicago with a concussion, per NBC Sports on Friday. Murray sustained the head injury in Week 1 and has not been cleared.
THE VERDICT. Murray is unstartable in every format this week, and concussion protocol makes next week uncertain as well. Redraft managers rostering him as their only quarterback should stream instead and add whoever Minnesota names as the Week 2 starter, since that player becomes a matchup-based option against Chicago. In DFS, downgrade the entire Vikings passing game. Survivor players can view Chicago as a more attractive option, though not a safe one.
