Cardinals are listing RB Emari Demercado as out for Sunday’s game at Cleveland, and QB Kyler Murray as questionable.

Related Players: Keaontay Ingram, Damien Williams

Being that Williams has only logged snaps in three games since signing with Arizona, one would assume that Ingram will be the lead back on Sunday. Regardless, nether should be started in fantasy leagues.

Jonathan Gannon says they haven’t decided who will start for the Cardinals at QB vs Browns Sunday. He said they’ll likely decide on the plane today or tomorrow whether it’s Kyler Murray or Clayton Tune. Said they’ve had a good week of practice.

The prevailing thought is that the team is going to wait another week on Kyler, but it doesn't look like it's 100% decided yet. If Murray gets the nod, it might be best to wait a week to start him in fantasy.

According to multiple reports, however, the team is planning to have Clayton Tune start the game against the Browns. It would be the second regular season appearance for Tune after he threw one pass for four yards on a fake punt in Week 7.

This story has been a bit confusing over the past 24 hours. What we do know is Dobbs isn't starting, so it will be Tune or Murray. But reports are saying Murray may not be ready, and if that's the case, Tune will get the start. However, the story went on to say Gannon said the team was working through scenarios that could include Murray being active as Tune’s backup if he doesn’t get the starting nod, so a lot of the picture still needs to be filled in before the Cardinals get to Cleveland in Week 9.

Week 9 might be Kyler Murray time.

After Sunday’s loss to the Ravens, Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon said that Joshua Dobbs would remain the team’s starter for their game in Cleveland but Gannon reversed course on Monday. Gannon said that Murray or rookie Clayton Tune will get the start at quarterback against the Browns.

The story went on to say Gannon said he changed his mind about sticking with Dobbs after watching film of Sunday’s loss and that Murray will get the start as long as the team feels he’s healthy enough to go. Murray remains on the PUP list after tearing his ACL last season, but he has been on the practice field and is participating fully in the team’s workouts, the story went on to say. It seems like everything should point to Murray here, but it's obviously something to keep a close eye on until it's official. It's not a great matchup, but if Murray is still on your wire he should be added.

Cardinals QB Kyler Murray, in Week 2 of his practice window opening, was a full participant.

The Cardinals' deadline to activate Kyler Murray is November 8th, and it now seems very likely that the team will get him in under that date. With no setbacks, Murray could conceivably be a full go for Week 9.

The Cardinals are planning to open the practice window for QB Kyler Murray today, the first step in a slow process to ramp him up, coach Jonathan Gannon said. Murray and the team will be smart with his return from an ACL tear, but being on the practice field is a good step.

It would likely help fantasy managers if the Cardinals won a couple of games, as there is still no assurance that they would not shut him down for the year if it's already a lost season. Regardless, this is a good sign that we may see him on the field at some point in 2023.

It sounds like Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray is getting closer to his return to play after tearing his ACL last December.

Head coach Jonathan Gannon said in a Monday radio interview with Arizona Sports 98.7 that Murray is doing a “good job” in his rehab, adding he liked the week that the quarterback had.

“We’ve got to kind of see here the next couple days, see how tonight goes and tomorrow goes, and again, though, we’re not rushing that,” Gannon said, via Bob McManaman of the Arizona Republic, who noted that Gannon was hinting “very strongly” that Murray is making enough progress to be designated to return. “We’re making sure that he feels good about going out there, but he’s trending in the right direction.”

Dobbs has filled in fairly nicely for the Cards so far this season, but the team will at least need to see what they have with Murray and their offense at some point. The Cards will eventually have a decision to make - trade Murray and draft a QB of the future, or keep Murray after signing him to a longterm deal.

Arizona head coach Jonathan Gannon told Arizona Sports' "Burns and Gambo Show" that he expects Kyler Murray to play this season, but the team did place him on the physically unable to perform list, meaning he'll at least miss the first four weeks.

Despite that extended absence and no concrete date for his return, it was somewhat curious, the story pointed out, to see the Cardinals name Murray as one of their six captains for the season, which is his fourth consecutive season with the title. The story also said the Cards still view Murray as a franchise quarterback and a leader of the organization.

Cardinals do not plan to activate QB Kyler Murray off the Physically Unable to Perform List by Tuesday’s 4 p.m. ET deadline.

And now the Cardinals have released veteran QB Colt McCoy, per league sources.

If the Murray news turns out true, he would be ineligible to be active during the first four games of the season, which doesn't come as a huge surprise. The McCoy release now means newly acquired Dobbs or rookie Tune will get the start in Week 1.

Cardinals placed WR Rondale Moore and QB Kyler Murray on IR; their seasons are over.

Moore, who was dealing with a groin injury, played in seven full games and in all but two had six or more catches. Twice he went for more than 90 yards receiving but had just one touchdown in that span. He'll remain behind Hopkins and Brown heading into the 2023 season with a big question at QB and whether or not Murray will be ready.
