Cardinal Fans Get a Worrying Update on Kyler Murray Ahead of Their MNF Matchup With 49ers

NFL will be setting up a shop in Mexico this week, with the next edition of Monday Night Football set to be played in the Estadio Azteca in Mexico City. While the San Francisco 49ers and Arizona Cardinals will take the center stage in the showdown, Cardinal quarterback Kyler Murray has been listed as questionable.

In addition to a disappointing season, there is a further worry for the fans in Arizona. Their starting quarterback, Murray, has landed on the questionable list to start against the red and golds on Monday. He suffered a hamstring injury in Week 9. While he soldiered on that occasion; he missed their game against the Rams this past week. And remains limited in the practices up until now.

Whether the quarterback will be able to start on Monday or not is still up in the air. Their backup QB, Colt McCoy, also found himself on the injury report earlier in the week with a knee injury and has missed multiple practices prior to this week. However, he participated in both Thursday’s and Friday’s training sessions. So if Murray is unable to start, McCoy will be ready to pounce on the opportunity.

Kyler Murray: A season to forget

The Cardinals drafted Murray with their first overall pick in the 2019 NFL draft. And the 25-year-old showed a lot of potential in his first season as well. While the team made the playoffs last season, Murray was a key component of the team. Following an early exit from the postseason last time out, people were expecting them to finally step up their game this term.

What was the first order of business this preseason? Extend their QB1 contract. However, right after the extension, a game study clause in his contract brought a lot of bad light on the player. This led to a ton of negative scrutiny even before the season started as questions about his professionalism plagued the organization and the player.

Since the commencement of the season, he has not been able to answer back. With him starting, the team is 3-6 so far and sits dead last in their division. And now it seems he will have to wait for his turn to win the fans back.
