Kyler Murray Unlikely To Be Ready For 2023 Season
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (knee) had surgery to fix his torn right ACL on Tuesday, and on Wednesday head coach Kliff Kingsbury said that Murray "probably" won't be ready for the start of the 2023 season. In addition to the ACL repair, Murray needed a meniscus repair. After another disappointing season for the Cardinals in his fourth year in the NFL, the two-time Pro Bowler won't be afforded a normal offseason as he recovers from a major knee injury. Murray was missing top wideout DeAndre Hopkins for the first six games of the season and finished with a 66.4% completion percentage, a career-low 2,368 yards, 14 touchdowns and seven interceptions in 11 starts. He also had 67 carries for 418 yards and three scores on the ground. Given the fact that Murray may not be ready for the start of next season, his fantasy value will obviously take a pretty big hit.
Jan 5, 2023 • 3:45 AM | RotoBallerKyler Murray Set For Surgery On January 3
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (knee) will have surgery on January 3, according to NBC Sports' Melissa Starks. The signal-caller suffered a season-ending torn ACL during the Week 14 encounter with the New England Patriots. While it was initially reported Murray was facing a six-to-eight-month absence, it is now believed he could be out nine months. As a result, the 2019 No. 1 overall pick may not be on the field again until October at the earliest. Nevertheless, there will likely be routine updates regarding Murray's condition heading into the 2023-23 campaign, so anything can change in the months ahead.
Dec 26, 2022 • 2:52 AM | RotoBallerKyler Murray On Track For Beginning Of 2023 Season
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (knee) recently suffered a season-ending ACL tear in his left knee. It is awful news as the 25-year-old will undergo surgery and miss the rest of this season. Luckily, the six-to-eight month timetable does have Murray on track to return for the beginning of next season. The significant knee injury is certainly going to put on a question mark around his fantasy value heading into next season. He might not be able to run the same, which would be a big problem considering a lot of Murray's game is done with his legs. Fantasy managers will just have to wait and see how the recovery process goes for Murray. The good news is, Murray is trending towards being ready for the beginning of next season. Until then, veteran signal-caller Colt McCoy will start under center for Arizona.
Dec 18, 2022 • 2:27 PM | RotoBallerKyler Murray To Have Surgery After Christmas
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (knee) is scheduled to have surgery to fix the torn ACL in his left knee sometime after Christmas, according to head coach Kliff Kingsbury. The Cardinals put Murray on season-ending Injured Reserve this week. Kingsbury said he "wouldn't put anything past" Murray as far as being ready for the 2023 season. The 25-year-old signal-caller had a bit of a disappointing season in 2022, throwing for 2,368 yards, 14 touchdowns and seven interceptions while adding 418 rushing yards and three more TDs on 67 carries. With him potentially not being ready for the start of next season, Murray's fantasy stock as a QB1 for fantasy managers next year is on thin ice. Veteran Colt McCoy will lead Arizona's offense in the final four games.
Dec 15, 2022 • 7:22 PM | RotoBallerKyler Murray, Rondale Moore Placed On Injured Reserve
The Arizona Cardinals placed quarterback Kyler Murray (knee) and wide receiver Rondale Moore (groin) on Injured Reserve on Wednesday, officially ending their seasons. The Cardinals confirmed on Tuesday that Murray tore his left ACL in the Monday night loss to the New England Patriots. The 25-year-old will require surgery, and there's a good chance he won't be ready for the start of the 2023 season. Murray finishes his fourth NFL season with 2,368 passing yards, 14 touchdowns and seven interceptions on 390 attempts. He added 67 carries for 418 yards and three TDs in 11 games. Moore hasn't played since Week 11 and will finish his second season with 41 catches for 414 yards and one TD in eight games. Colt McCoy will take over at QB for Murray, while Robbie Anderson should have a bigger role as the No. 3 receiver the rest of the way with Moore out.
Dec 14, 2022 • 10:06 PM | RotoBallerMRI Confirms Torn ACL For Kyler Murray
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (knee) tore his left ACL in the Monday night loss to the New England Patriots, an MRI exam confirmed on Tuesday. Murray will now miss the final four games of the 2022 season and won't be ready for the start of next year. The 25-year-old's knee gave out while scrambling on just the third play of the game, and he was carted off while in tears. Murray finishes his fourth year in the desert with 2,368 yards, 14 touchdowns and seven interceptions on 390 pass attempts while also carrying the ball 67 times for 418 yards and three more scores. He can officially be dropped in single-season fantasy leagues. Veteran backup Colt McCoy will take over as the starter the rest of the way and will be a low-end QB2 option in superflex leagues.
Dec 13, 2022 • 7:00 PM | RotoBallerLittle Doubt That Kyler Murray Has A Torn ACL
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (knee) is expected to have an MRI exam on Tuesday, but there is "little doubt that it's torn," according to a source, referring to Murray's left ACL. Murray went down on a scary non-contact injury on the first offensive series of the game on Monday night against the New England Patriots and was carted off the field. The 25-year-old signal-caller had a towel over his head and reportedly was crying in the locker room. Fantasy managers and the Cardinals are expected to be without Murray for the final four weeks of the season, and he might not be ready to go for Week 1 in 2023, either. Veteran backup Colt McCoy should start for Arizona under center to close out the season.
Dec 13, 2022 • 4:21 AM | RotoBallerKyler Murray Feared To Have Suffered Serious Knee Injury
NFL Network's Ian Rapoport tweeted that Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (knee) is feared to have suffered a serious knee injury against the New England Patriots on Monday Night Football. Murray was carted off after suffering a non-contact knee injury during the first quarter. Rapoport indicated that Murray will go for an MRI and other tests in the near future to determine the extent of the injury. It will be Colt McCoy under center for the Cards for the rest of the way on Monday night and possibly for the remainder of the 2022 season.
Dec 13, 2022 • 2:24 AM | RotoBallerKyler Murray Downgraded To Out On Monday
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (knee) will not return to his team's Monday game against the New England Patriots. Murray went down with a non-contact knee injury on his team's first drive of the game and was carted off of the field. He was initially deemed questionable to return but was ruled out of the contest shortly after. The Cardinals will now look to Colt McCoy to replace Murray at the quarterback position for the remainder of the game. Murray's injury looked scary at the time and could be serious, although the Cardinals will have to wait until at least Tuesday to find out the extent of the damage. Fantasy gamers rostering Murray will want to make alternate plans at the quarterback position when waivers run this week.
Dec 13, 2022 • 2:03 AM | RotoBallerKyler Murray Questionable To Return On Monday
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (knee) suffered a scary non-contact injury on the first possession of the Monday night game against the New England Patriots and had to be carted off the field. However, the Cardinals are saying he's questionable to return. He looked dejected with a towel over his head while being carted off. Backup Colt McCoy is now in the game and could finish the regular season as Arizona's starting QB, depending on the official diagnosis for Murray. The 25-year-old signal-caller completed his only pass attempt for nine yards and had a three-yard rush on the ugly looking injury. In two starts in Weeks 10 and 11, McCoy went 50-for-71 for 456 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions against the Rams and 49ers.
Dec 13, 2022 • 1:29 AM | RotoBallerKyler Murray Ready To Return Against Chargers
Arizona Cardinals head coach Kliff Kingsbury said that quarterback Kyler Murray (hamstring) looked sharp this week in practice and is ready to go for the Week 12 game against the Los Angeles Chargers. Murray returned to a full practice on Wednesday and has been trending toward returning from a two-game absence for the Cardinals. The 25-year-old will take back over for Colt McCoy to face the Chargers this weekend. Murray will be without Rondale Moore (groin) and could also be without Greg Dortch (thumb), but he's expected to get Marquise Brown (foot) back this weekend. The Chargers defense has been more vulnerable on the ground this year, but Murray will be at least a low-end QB1 for fantasy managers in his return to action in Week 12.
Nov 25, 2022 • 8:12 PM | RotoBallerKyler Murray Expected To Start Sunday
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (hamstring) has missed the past two games because of a hamstring injury. However, Murray practiced in full on Wednesday and head coach Kliff Kingsbury said Murray was "definitely trending in the right direction" to start Sunday against the Los Angeles Chargers. The star quarterback also said he felt good and expects to start this week. Arizona has lost three of the past four games, including two to NFC West division rivals. Meanwhile, Murray has been productive when on the field, averaging 19.4 fantasy points per game this season. Assuming he is ready to play, Murray is a sold low-end QB1 this week against the Chargers.
Nov 23, 2022 • 7:50 PM | RotoBallerCardinals Being Cautious With Kyler Murray's Injury
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (hamstring) has missed the past two games with a lingering ailment. When asked on Tuesday, head coach Kliff Kingsbury said it has progressed "quite a bit," but they want him to be "full throttle" before he plays. He also referenced the injuries to their offensive line, citing that as one of the reasons they decided to hold out their star signal-caller against the 49ers. His backup, Colt McCoy, was on the injury report last week and projects to be again this week, but he's likely to play if needed. Arizona has their bye week after their game against the Chargers, which could impact how they handle Murray's health. Fantasy managers would be wise to ensure they have an alternative quarterback this week in case the 25-year-old is inactive again.
Nov 23, 2022 • 1:27 PM | RotoBallerKyler Murray Not Expected To Play Against 49ers
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (hamstring) reportedly might not return until after the team's Week 13 bye, as the team will be cautious in letting their franchise quarterback heal up. That said, he's not expected to play on Monday Night Football against the San Francisco 49ers. Colts McCoy is in line to start his second straight game, so hopefully, Murray's fantasy managers either picked up McCoy or rolled with a different quarterback who has already played in Week 11.
Nov 21, 2022 • 7:17 PM | RotoBallerKyler Murray To Be Game-Time Decision Again
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (hamstring) was ruled out for Week 10 after being called a game-time decision, and he'll be a game-time decision once again for the Cardinals' Week 11 Monday Night Football matchup with the San Francisco 49ers. Since he plays on Monday, it's a tricky situation for fantasy managers. Unless managers have the means to pivot to Jimmy Garoppolo should Murray be ruled out, it might be worth rolling with a different quarterback from the Sunday slate of games. Colt McCoy has low upside against a fierce 49ers' defense, but he'd be a viable superflex start if he's the starting quarterback once again.
Nov 18, 2022 • 7:24 PM | RotoBallerKyler Murray Could Miss Another Week
The Arizona Cardinals could give quarterback Kyler Murray (hamstring) another week to rest his ailing hamstring. The team will see how he feels in the middle of the week, so his practice status will be important to watch leading into this weekend's game against the San Francisco 49ers on Monday Night Football. With the game being on Monday night, it will be even harder to trust Murray for starting fantasy lineups if he's questionable to suit up. Head coach Kliff Kingsbury is 3-1 with Colt McCoy as the starter, and Arizona believes it can win with him. Fantasy managers shouldn't believe the same, although McCoy could be a desperation QB2 in superflex leagues if Murray misses another game.
Nov 16, 2022 • 5:21 PM | RotoBallerKyler Murray Remains Day-To-Day
Arizona Cardinals head coach Kliff Kingsbury said that quarterback Kyler Murray (hamstring) remains day-to-day, but Kingsbury reiterated that the team wants Murray to be able to run at full speed on the field before he returns. Murray was inactive in the Week 10 win over the Los Angeles Rams, and he'll have to show the coaching staff more if he wants to return in Week 11 against the San Francisco 49ers. With the 25-year-old sidelined, veteran backup Colt McCoy started and led the team to a win, going 26-for-37 for 238 yard and a touchdown in his first action in 2022. We'll keep a close eye on Murray's practice status this week as he gets back to work on Wednesday. If he plays this weekend against a strong Niners defense, he'll be a low-end QB1 option in fantasy.
Nov 14, 2022 • 11:24 PM | RotoBallerKyler Murray Unlikely To Play In Week 10
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (hamstring) will test things out pre-game to see if he'll play against the Rams. However, the signal-caller continues to move "gingerly," according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, so it's unlikely he'll be available on Sunday. If that's the case, Colt McCoy will be under center. McCoy has totaled 684 yards, three touchdowns, and one pick while amassing a passer rating of 103.2 in three career starts as a Cardinal. While those numbers aren't anything spectacular, his services may come in handy for those in deep multi-quarterback setups.
Nov 13, 2022 • 7:41 AM | RotoBallerSkepticism Surrounding Kyler Murray's Week 10 Status
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (hamstring) is expected to be a game-time decision on Sunday afternoon, but he's trending in the wrong direction. A source "expressed skepticism" to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler about Murray's status for Week 10, adding that backup Colt McCoy is prepared to start if necessary. In such a scenario, McCoy would rank as a high-end QB3 in fantasy football.
Nov 13, 2022 • 3:11 AM | RotoBallerKyler Murray To Be Game-Time Decision
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (hamstring) will be a game-time decision for the game against the Los Angeles Rams in Week 10. Murray didn't practice Wednesday before getting in limited practices later in the week, so there's a real chance he could miss this contest. Some quarterbacks would be just fine with hamstring issues, but Murray's strength is his mobility, so it would significantly impact his play. If he's active, he's at risk of having a lower ceiling with reduced rushing upside. That said, he'll still be worth starting. If he's out, Colt McCoy will start his fourth game for Arizona since joining the team in 2021.
Nov 11, 2022 • 6:57 PM | RotoBallerKyler Murray Back At Practice
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (hamstring) was seen at practice on Thursday in the portion open to the media. Murray was held out of practice on Wednesday, but his return on Thursday confirms he's not dealing with a serious injury leading up to the Week 10 matchup against the division-rival Los Angeles Rams. His hamstring injury is still worth keeping an eye on, but the 25-year-old should be active this weekend. Murray is currently the QB6 in overall fantasy points through nine weeks of the 2022 season, and although he's facing a tough defense in the Rams this Sunday, he'll remain a solid midrange QB1 for fantasy managers.
Nov 10, 2022 • 7:25 PM | RotoBallerKyler Murray Misses Practice, Considered Day-To-Day
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (hamstring) is considered day-to-day and did not practice on Wednesday, according to a source. Murray's injury isn't considered serious, but it's something to watch for the rest of the week and leading up to Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Rams. If for some reason he's unable to play against LA, the Cardinals would have to go with either Colt McCoy or Trace McSorley under center. Murray is the overall QB6 heading into Week 10 in fantasy, but he has even more upside with receiver DeAndre Hopkins in the fold. In the Week 3 loss to the Rams without Hopkins, Murray threw for 314 yards without a touchdown or interception. He'll be a midrange QB1 if he's able to play through his injury.
Nov 9, 2022 • 10:42 PM | RotoBallerKyler Murray, Marquise Brown Finally Work Together
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (wrist) and wide receiver Marquise Brown (hamstring) finally worked together for the first time this summer at training camp practice on Monday. "They just have a chemistry you can't really coach," wide receiver Greg Dortch said. "This is a grown man's game, but they are like kids out there, having fun with each other. It's fun watching them click like that." Murray and Brown have been eased into camp due to respective injuries, but they are finally working together to build chemistry for the 2022 regular season. With DeAndre Hopkins suspended for the first six games of the year, Brown will be Murray's No. 1 wideout, and he'll have low-end WR2/high-end WR3 value in fantasy drafts in his first year in Arizona.
