Nick Mullens Fantasy

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins has been pulled from Sunday's game against the Chicago Bears. The Vikings have already clinched the NFC North title, and with a two-score lead over the Bears, Minnesota will play things safe by resting its starting quarterback. He finishes with 17 completions, 225 yards, and one touchdown in Week 18. With Cousins done for the day, Nick Mullens entered the game under center and should play the remainder of the contest.

The Minnesota Vikings acquired quarterback Nick Mullens from the Las Vegas Raiders on Monday in exchange for a conditional seventh-round draft pick in 2024, according to sources. Mullens will now be competing with Sean Mannion and Kellen Mond for the backup job behind starter Kirk Cousins. With Mullens now out of the way in Las Vegas, Jarrett Stidham should be Derek Carr's unquestioned backup in 2022. Mullens, who originally went undrafted out of Southern Mississippi, spent his first three seasons in the NFL with the San Francisco 49ers before joining the Cleveland Browns in 2021. In 20 career games (17 starts), the 27-year-old signal-caller has completed 64.6 percent of his 630 attempts for 4,861 yards, 26 touchdowns and 22 interceptions.

Quarterback Nick Mullens has agreed to a deal with the Las Vegas Raiders, per Mike Garafolo of the NFL Network. Mullens is set to battle Garrett Gilbert for backup duties behind Derek Carr, who threw for a career-best 4,804 yards last season. Mullens, an undrafted free agent out of Southern Miss, spent last season with the Browns, where he made one start, his only appearance of the year. Previously, he spent three seasons with San Francisco, where he combined to throw for 4,714 yards and 25 touchdowns (with 22 interceptions) across 19 games (16 starts). Carr is the unquestioned QB1 for Vegas, although Mullens has proven adept at having DFS value on the occasions in which he steps in.
