Cardinals Prepare for Kyler Murray’s Possible Return Against Cowboys

The Arizona Cardinals have listed quarterback Kyler Murray as limited in practice on Thursday, raising questions about his availability for the upcoming Monday night game against the Dallas Cowboys. Coach Jonathan Gannon indicated that the team is preparing for Murray to start, but the situation remains uncertain as the Cardinals also worked out three other quarterbacks earlier this week.

Murray’s status has been a point of concern. He was limited in practice throughout Week 7, ultimately being designated as questionable before missing the game against the Green Bay Packers. Prior to that, he participated in only one practice during the week leading up to that game, which resulted in his inactivity.

The Cardinals canceled Murray’s media availability for Thursday, further complicating the narrative surrounding his potential return. It appears the coaching staff is weighing all options as they approach the matchup against the Cowboys.

In addition to Murray, the team’s injury report includes several players who were also limited in practice. Offensive lineman Kelvin Beachum did not participate, taking a rest day. Safety Kitan Crawford (ankle), running back Emari Demercado (ankle), wide receiver Zay Jones (knee), defensive lineman Walter Nolen III (calf), linebacker BJ Ojulari (knee), and cornerback Garrett Williams (knee) all faced limitations during the session.

As the Cardinals gear up for their critical home game, the health and readiness of their starting quarterback will play a pivotal role in their strategy against the Cowboys. The team hopes to finalize their game plan based on Murray’s performance in practice leading up to kickoff. With the stakes high, fans await further updates on one of their team’s key players.
