The Arizona Cardinals won’t be starting Kyler Murray at the beginning of the 2023 NFL season. Since the quarterback has not yet recovered from his torn ACL injury, the NFC West team has chosen a replacement who will fill in until he returns.

In December, something truly unfortunate happened to Kyler Murray. The quarterback had to be carted off the field during the game against the New England Patriots due to an injury, which was later confirmed as a torn ACL.

With McCoy out of the team and Murray missing the first four games of the season (at least), it is expected that Joshua Dobbs take the job. He was recently acquired by Arizona via trade with the Browns, and the experienced quarterback will have a chance to prove himself in the beginning of the campaign.
