Fantasy Impact:
Dejounte Murray will make his season debut Tuesday after recovering from a torn Achilles suffered in January 2025. He said he feels great spiritually, mentally and physically, adding that the time off allowed him to see the game from a different perspective and focus on how he can improve and help the team. It’s unclear how many minutes he’ll handle right away, but a minutes restriction should be expected in the short term. With his return, Jeremiah Fears and Bryce McGowens could begin to see their minutes reduced.
