Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray has a timetable of 4-8 weeks to return from a foot injury, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. Schefter also reported that Jacoby Brissett will remain the starter for this Sunday’s game against the Seattle Seahawks.
Murray reportedly consulted with multiple doctors to determine this timeline. With that in mind, the team will likely have Brissett as the start at least for the next few games, as a Week 14 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams would be the absolute earliest Murray could return.
Murray has not played since Week 5, when he suffered the injury in a contest against the Tennessee Titans. Prior to his injury, the QB had thrown for 962 yards and six touchdowns to three interception this season while also rushing for 173 yards and a score.
Brissett has started the past three games for Arizona and led them to a 1-2 record in that span. They got their first victory with him as starter on Monday against the Dallas Cowboys by a score of 27-17.
Brissett is a 10-year veteran quarterback who has started 56 total games across his career with a 20-36 record in those contests. So far this season he has thrown for 860 yards and six touchdowns to one interception in addition to 51 yards rushing and a touchdown.
