"TEMPE, Ariz. -- Kyler Murray stood on the sideline Sunday in his black hoodie and black sweatpants, watching the Arizona Cardinals franchise he was once supposed to save lose yet again. And there was nothing he could do about it. He couldn't scramble away from an entire defense like he did in Las Vegas in 2022 or outsprint a linebacker for the end zone like he did twice last season."
"Murray's season ended last week when coach Jonathan Gannon announced Murray wouldn't return from a foot injury that's sidelined him since Week 6. It's possible Murray won't return to the Cardinals at all. If that's the case, Murray's seven years will be defined by what could've been. After announcing that Murray was out for the rest of 2025, Gannon declined to say last week if he expects Murray to be his quarterback in 2026."
Kyler Murray watched from the sideline in black attire as the Arizona Cardinals lost while he remained sidelined by a foot injury that began in Week 6. Coach Jonathan Gannon announced Murray would not return for the rest of the 2025 season and did not commit to Murray as the team's quarterback in 2026. The 2019 No. 1 overall pick and Rookie of the Year owns a 38-48-1 NFL starting record with one winning season in 2021 and a single playoff appearance, a blowout loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Murray posted dominant high school and college records but failed to replicate that sustained success in the NFL, even after being paired with coach Kliff Kingsbury.
