Best WR corps of career with O'Connell; Mattek targeting as QB1 in some formats
Murray had the worst season of his career last year with only 15.5 fantasy points per game, but has been a top-12 QB every other year of his career. He now gets to play with Kevin O'Connell, which Mattek describes as 'like going from a Honda Civic to a Lamborghini or a Ferrari' compared to upgrading from Drew Pettus. He has Justin Jefferson, Jordan Addison, Jawan Jennings, and TJ Hawkinson as pass catchers—'certainly the best group of pass catchers that Kyler has ever played with.' Despite being in a quarterback battle with JJ McCarthy, Mattek is specifically targeting Kyler Murray as his primary quarterback, even in some formats as his QB1, indicating high conviction in his 2026 fantasy upside. He also gets a lot of indoor dome games which tends to drive scoring.
