THE DROP / ADD CALL

Lean: keep Kyler Murray

Kyler Murray retains a 0.9 FP remaining-schedule advantage. Malik Willis leads this week by 2.8 FP, but a short-term fill-in does not justify losing the stronger projected hold. Check for a lower-cost roster spot if you need coverage. These are player forecast totals, not extra starter points or playoff-odds gains for your team. Kyler Murray is questionable; an injury designation alone is not a reason to drop him.
