Cardinals Prepare Kyler Murray to Start Monday vs Cowboys Amid Five-Game Losing Streak

The Arizona Cardinals are preparing to start quarterback Kyler Murray in their upcoming Monday night game against the Dallas Cowboys, following his recovery from a foot injury that sidelined him for the last two games. Head coach Jonathan Gannon confirmed Murray's return but emphasized the need for him to be fully healthy before playing, highlighting the benefits of the team's recent bye week for recovery and overall team health. Backup quarterback Jacoby Brissett, who started in Murray's absence, performed well statistically but the team still lost both games, keeping the Cardinals at a disappointing 2-5 record and last place in the NFC West. The bye week also allowed the team to adjust some offensive strategies to better suit Murray's comfort and readiness. Despite some improvement in offensive pace and individual performances during practices, the Cardinals face pressure to turn around their losing streak with Murray back at the helm. The coaching staff remains optimistic about Murray's ability to lead the team, although the offense has struggled to elevate its overall performance this season.
