Cardinals won't open Kyler Murray's (foot) practice window this week
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray watches his team from the sidelines as they play the San Francisco 49ers at State Farm Stadium in Glendale on Nov. 16, 2025. Despite being on injured reserve for the minimum of four games, Kyler Murray's practice window will not open this week, Cardinals coach Jonathan Gannon told reporters Monday.
Out since Oct. 5 with a foot injury, Murray was eligible this week to begin a 21-day practice window to start the process to be elevated from injured reserve.
"He's not quite there yet," Gannon said of Murray.
Murray last played in a 22-21 Week 5 loss to the Tennessee Titans. He was not placed on IR until Nov. 5, exactly a month later, after attempting to practice through the injury.
With Murray out once again, Jacoby Brissett will be the Cardinals' starting quarterback this week as Arizona (3-9) takes on the Los Angeles Rams (9-3).
Brissett, 32, is 1-6 as the Cardinals' starter this season, throwing for 2,188 yards, 13 touchdowns and 4 interceptions. Kedon Slovis will continue to serve as the backup.
