Kyler Murray Injury Update
Kyler Murray is still out. He did not play in Week 9 against the Dallas Cowboys. He has a foot sprain from Week 5, and the injury is taking longer to heal than expected.
The Cardinals listed him as questionable before the game, but they decided it was better not to rush him back. Murray has been at some practices and did some throwing, but he’s not moving well enough for coaches to let him play. Reports say the team is not benching him for performance reasons — it’s 100 percent about his health.
Jacoby Brissett started again for Arizona. He’s filled in for three games now. The team said Murray wanted to play, but they’re holding him out so he doesn’t risk more damage.
The injury happened during the Week 5 loss to Tennessee. At first, they called him “day-to-day,” but he missed two games before Arizona’s bye and wasn’t ready for Week 9. Murray reportedly feels okay passing from the pocket but still can’t move the way he needs to on the run.
The team hopes Murray will be healthy soon, maybe by Week 10 when they play Seattle. It depends on how well he can move on his foot. They are focusing on his long-term recovery.
Arizona’s record is 2 wins and 7 losses. They need Murray back, but coaches say they won't rush things just to get a win.
To sum up, Kyler Murray is still rehabbing his foot. He’s missing games because the injury is real, not because of any off-field reason. The team expects him back once he looks fully mobile at practice.
Disclaimer:
Kyler Murray’s absence from the Arizona Cardinals lineup is due to a foot sprain, which is taking longer to heal than initially expected. The team has confirmed that his absence is purely health-related and not a performance issue. The coaching staff is prioritizing his long-term recovery and will not rush his return to the field.
