The Cardinals started the season at 0-2 with losses to the Washington Commanders and New York Giants. Some speculate they aim to secure the No. 1 draft pick and select quarterback Caleb Williams from USC. However, it’s up to Murray to make a successful return and gain the trust of the new regime led by Monti Ossenfort and Jonathan Gannon.
The timing of Murray’s comeback and his performance upon return will be intriguing storylines to follow this season.
