ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports that Carson Wentz will start for the Vikings in Week 9 against the Bills.

On Monday, Vikings coach Kevin O’Connell told reporters that Kyler Murray is dealing with a “sore hamstring.” After breaking the news that Wentz will start for the Vikings’ Monday Night Football game, Schefter revealed that Murray is considered “week-to-week.” Unless Wentz flops and Murray’s strained hamstring recovers quickly, Wentz is seemingly in line to start for more than one game. If he plays well enough, he could end up starting for the rest of the season. Wentz’s installation upgrades the fantasy prospects for Vikings pass catchers. Wentz warrants QB2 treatment at this time.
