The Arizona Cardinals are in a difficult situation entering Week 7, as they will not have their starting quarterback, Kyler Murray, available due to a knee injury. They will have to use a backup for the Week 7 game against the Seattle Seahawks.

So far, the Cardinals are mired in a 1-5 record, and it is unlikely that they will get out of that record without Murray. They need the talent of their quarterback, but there is still a long time before he returns permanently.

In Week 6, the Cardinals lost another game, falling on the road to the Los Angeles Rams 26-9. It was the third consecutive loss since the Cardinals’ victory against the Dallas Cowboys 28-16 in Week 3.

Kyler Murray is returning from an ACL injury, and it was expected that at some point he would be available to play in the regular season. However, it appears that has not happened yet. In 2022, Murray suffered a torn ACL in Week 14, which ended his season.

Murray is a dynamic dual-threat quarterback. He is a skilled passer with a quick release and good accuracy. He is also a dangerous runner, with excellent speed and agility. Murray is a threat to score every time he has the ball in his hands.

In his first three seasons in the NFL, Murray has established himself as one of the best young quarterbacks in the league. He has led the Cardinals to the playoffs in 2021, and he has been selected to two Pro Bowls (2020, 2021).

When will Kyler Murray return?

The Cardinals have not given a specific timetable for Murray’s return, but it is unlikely that he will be back before Week 10 or 11. He is still recovering from a torn ACL, and the Cardinals are taking a cautious approach with his rehab.
