Cardinals' Kyler Murray: Cardinals future in doubt
Kyler Murray (foot) might never play for the Arizona Cardinals again, with the team treating him like the Broncos did with Russell Wilson a couple of seasons ago, Jay Glazer reported on Fox NFL Sunday.Many have speculated that this might be Murray's fate, given that he wasn't initially expected to have a lengthy absence and then ended up on IR. The Cardinals will have an interesting offseason discussion, to say the least. Will they use a potential top-10 pick on a quarterback, shop for another veteran, or even bring back Jacoby Brissett? Meanwhile, Brissett will remain the starter the rest of this season.

Cardinals' Kyler Murray: Won't return this year
Kyler Murray's foot injury isn't improving and he won't play again this season, Darren Urban of the Arizona Cardinals' official site reports.Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon made the announcement Friday, confirming what many already expected. He didn't say if Murray will need surgery, nor did the coach comment on expectations for Murray's future (or lack thereof) with the Cardinals. Jacoby Brissett will continue making starts for Arizona, to the delight of anyone relying on TE Trey McBride or WR Michael Wilson in fantasy.

Cardinals' Kyler Murray: Will not practice this week
Kyler Murray (foot) will not return to practice this week, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.Murray remains on injured reserve but is eligible to have his 21-day practice window opened. However, the Arizona Cardinals will not start Murray's clock for a return, and he'll stick on injured reserve for at least one more week while his foot continues to heal. Jacoby Brissett again will operate under center as the Cardinals' starting quarterback.

Cardinals' Kyler Murray: Not yet fully healthy
Kyler Murray is eligible to return from injured reserve Week 14, but he doesn't appear to be fully healed from his mid-foot sprain and appears unlikely to be activated ahead of next Sunday's game against the Rams, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.According to Rapoport, the Arizona Cardinals anticipated that Murray would be 100 percent healthy following a four-week stay on IR, but the signal-caller apparently hasn't responded as well to extended rest as the team believed he would. Jacoby Brissett thus appears poised to retain the starting job heading into Week 14, and given how well Brissett has performed over the last several weeks, the Cardinals may not have much motivation to reintegrate Murray down the stretch. Murray is guaranteed $36.8 million for the 2026 season, and Arizona will owe him another $19.5 million in salary for 2027 if he remains on the roster through March 16.

Cardinals' Kyler Murray: 'Working hard to get healthy,' per Gannon
Coach Jonathan Gannon said Monday that Kyler Murray (foot) is "working hard to get healthy," Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports. "That's what he's doing right now," Gannon added. "He's in every meeting. He's engaged. He's rehabbing a boat load of time in there."Murray has been sidelined since he last suited up Week 5 due to a mid-foot sprain, but because the Arizona Cardinals didn't place him on injured reserve until before a Week 10 matchup with the Seahawks, he isn't eligible to return until Sunday, Dec. 7 against the Rams, at the earliest. Having said that, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported on Nov. 9 that Murray isn't expected to start again this season unless an injury befalls fellow QB Jacoby Brissett, who has racked up 1,887 yards, 11 touchdowns and three interceptions in six starts since Murray got injured. Murray thus may be facing a backup role whenever he's cleared for game action down the stretch, but he remains embedded in his recovery at the moment.

Cardinals' Kyler Murray: Future in Arizona in limbo
Kyler Murray, who was placed on injured reserve Wednesday due to a mid-foot sprain, is not expected to start again if he returns this season, "absent injury to Jacoby Brissett," Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.While the Arizona Cardinals haven't explicitly indicated Brissett will remain their starting quarterback for the remainder of the season, head coach Jonathan Gannon implied Tuesday that Brissett would have started Week 10 in Seattle even if Murray was fully healthy. The Cardinals then deactivated Murray a day later, and though he'll be eligible to return from IR beginning in Week 14, he looks like he could be ticketed for backup duties so long as Brissett stays healthy and continues to direct a productive offense. With that in mind, Rapoport suggests Murray may have played his last game with Arizona, potentially making the 28-year-old signal-caller a trade or cut candidate during the upcoming offseason. Murray is already fully guaranteed $36.8 million for 2026, and he'll be guaranteed an additional $19.5 million in base salary for 2027 if he remains on the roster through March 16.

Cardinals' Kyler Murray: Moving to injured reserve
Coach Jonathan Gannon announced Wednesday that the Arizona Cardinals are placing Kyler Murray (foot) on injured reserve, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.One day removed from Gannon naming Jacoby Brissett as Arizona's starting QB for Week 10, Murray now will be sidelined for the rest of November due to the mid-foot sprain that has kept him out since he suffered it Week 5. Brissett will continue to lead the offense for the foreseeable future, while Gannon told Tyler Drake of ArizonaSports.com that Murray has a chance to return this season. Murray's first opportunity to do so will be Sunday, Dec. 7 against the Rams.

Cardinals' Kyler Murray: Won't start Sunday
Arizona head coach Jonathan Gannon announced that Jacoby Brissett will start Sunday's game in Seattle instead of Kyler Murray (foot), Darren Urban of the Arizona Cardinals' official site reports.After Monday's 27-17 win over the Cowboys, Gannon suggested that Murray would return to the starting role once fully recovered from a mid-foot sprain that has sidelined him for three straight games. However, John Gambadoro of Arizona Sports 98.7 FM relays that Gannon appeared to do an about-face on those comments a day later during a radio appearance, with the coach noting that he made the decision to go with Brissett as his starter in Week 10 even if Murray was 100 percent healthy. The coach made no declarations on his plans at quarterback beyond Week 10, but if Brissett continues to lead the offense effectively in Seattle, he could retain the No. 1 job. Murray was a limited practice participant in Week 9 prep, and it's unclear how close he might be to fully putting the foot injury behind him. According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, Murray was initially provided estimated recovery timelines ranging from 4-to-8 weeks, but he's already missed the lower end of that range. Gannon also acknowledged that Murray could still be a candidate for injured reserve, despite Murray not being officially ruled out from serving as Brissett's backup or as an emergency No. 3 quarterback in Week 10.

Cardinals' Kyler Murray: Still in line to start
Arizona Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon said after Monday's 27-17 win over the Cowboys that Kyler Murray (foot) will remain the team's starting quarterback once fully healthy, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.Jacoby Brissett was once again impressive Monday while filling in for Murray under center, leading Arizona to a primetime win while throwing for multiple scores for the third contest in a row. Brissett's performance has seemingly created a quarterback controversy in Arizona, though Gannon tried to end that chatter with a clear statement that Murray remains atop the depth chart. Murray has yet to record a full practice since suffering a mid-foot sprain, so it remains unclear if he'll be ready to return Week 10 against Seattle.
