Cardinals' Kyler Murray: Throws three TDs in win
Kyler Murray completed 17 of 21 pass attempts for 266 yards and three touchdowns while adding 59 rushing yards on five attempts in Sunday's 41-10 blowout win over the Rams.Murray tore apart the Rams' secondary in Sunday's lopsided victory, missing just four pass attempts and committing no turnovers. The 2019 first-overall pick has battled injuries over the past two seasons, but he is now playing with the confidence we saw from the star QB prior to breaking down physically. Murray is shaping up to be a great bounce-back candidate in 2024 with four touchdowns and a 73 percent completion rate through two games. A true barometer awaits for the 26-year-old in Week 3 when the Arizona Cardinals host a stingy Lions defense at State Farm Stadium on Sunday.

Cardinals' Kyler Murray: Poor passing numbers in Week 1 loss
Kyler Murray completed 21 of 31 passes for 162 yards and one touchdown in Sunday's 34-28 loss to the Bills. He also rushed five times for 57 yards and lost a fumble.Murray capped the opening drive with a five-yard touchdown pass to Michael Wilson and helped the Arizona Cardinals race out to a 17-3 lead, but Buffalo responded with 21 unanswered points, aided by a Murray fumble. Arizona's dual-threat quarterback then responded with a 29-yard run to set up a field goal on the next drive, but Murray and the Cardinals came up short on their last drive, turning the ball over on downs at Buffalo's 29-yard line in the final minute. Rookie fourth overall pick Marvin Harrison had just four yards in his NFL debut, so Murray will look to get the talented wide receiver more involved in Week 2 against the Rams.

Cardinals' Kyler Murray: Won't see preseason action
Coach Jonathan Gannon said Tuesday that Kyler Murray won't suit up for any of Arizona's preseason contests, including Saturday's exhibition opener against the Saints, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.That sets the stage for Desmond Ridder and Clayton Tune to see plenty of preseason reps. A torn right ACL delayed his 2023 debut until Week 10, but Murray has been fully healthy in camp and his rushing production is ready to bounce back to usual levels. The addition of 2024 fourth overall pick Marvin Harrison should lead to a step forward in his passing production as well. Arizona also added veteran wideout Zay Jones this offseason, while tight end Trey McBride and second-year wideout Michael Wilson could develop further as targets for Murray.

Cardinals' Kyler Murray: New target in form of Harrison
Kyler Murray will be throwing to a new No. 1 wide receiver during the upcoming season and beyond after the Arizona Cardinals selected Marvin Harrison with the No. 4 overall pick in last week's draft.Murray's 2023 debut was delayed due to a torn ACL in his right knee that he suffered Dec. 12, 2022. Upon his return Week 10, he started the final eight games of the season, completing 176 of 268 passes (65.7 percent) for 1,799 yards, 10 touchdowns and five interceptions while rushing 44 times for 244 yards and three more scores. By the end of the season, second-year tight end Trey McBride had emerged as Murray's favorite target, and after the offseason departure of Marquise Brown, the quarterback was in search of a dynamic weapon in the passing game. The arrival of Harrison provides just that for Murray, who also will have running back James Conner and wideout Michael Wilson at his disposal.

Cardinals' Kyler Murray: Solid finish to rehab season
Kyler Murray completed 22 of 30 pass attempts for 262 yards and a touchdown while adding 33 rushing yards on five attempts in Sunday's 21-20 loss to the Seahawks.Murray finished the 2023 season on a high note with a pair of outings reminiscent of his pre-injury days under center in Arizona. The 27-year-old didn't look like the dual-threat fantasy stud he once was upon returning from ACL surgery in Week 10. If Murray can produce numbers close to his last three games this season (241.3 passing yards and 29.7 rushing yards per game along with a 6:1 TD:INT) in 2024, then we could see a bounce-back season in store for the two-sport athlete.

Cardinals' Kyler Murray: Throws three TDs to upset PHI
Kyler Murray completed 25 of 31 pass attempts for 232 yards, three touchdowns and one interception while rushing five times for 24 yards in Sunday's 35-31 win over the Eagles.Murray was an instrumental part of a second-half surge that brought the Arizona Cardinals back from a 21-6 halftime deficit to top the now 11-5 Eagles. The 2019 first-overall pick looked like his old self in the pocket by completing over 80 percent of his passes and scoring three touchdowns for the first time through seven games this season. However, Murray's best passing performance this year was coupled with one of his more casual rushing lines (5-24-0). Still, it was a masterful performance from Arizona's signal-caller in a tough road environment. Perhaps Murray's improved play coincides with his improved health following major offseason knee surgery. Whatever the case may be, Murray will carry a full head of steam into a Week 18 matchup against the Seahawks.
