If Murray Misses Time

Next man up: Carson Wentz

Carson Wentz is next on the Vikings depth chart at quarterback. In superflex leagues he's worth a speculative bench spot for Murray managers; in 1QB leagues he's a waiver add only if Murray misses time.

Who else it affects

A quarterback change matters most for Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison, his two most-targeted pass catchers this season.
