Cardinals Injury Report: Is Kyler Murray Playing in Week 8 vs. Ravens?

The Arizona Cardinals face the Baltimore Ravens in Week 8 action, and a missing key player could be returning to NFL action. Is Kyler Murray playing in Week 8 vs. the Ravens?

The two-time Pro Bowler is reportedly no longer in the Cardinals' injury report. Even better, Murray was a full participant at team practice on Thursday, October 27, per Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network.

The update on Kyler Murray's injury status is a great development for Cardinals fans. However, Rapoport cautioned that even if the 26-year-old QB was no longer on the injured list, it did not mean he would be suiting up against the Ravens on Sunday, October 29.

When can Murray possibly return?

The 2019 NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year is still on the physically unable-to-perform list that will last until November 8, NBC Sports reported.

This further addresses expectations on whether Murray can return when the Cardinals face the Ravens. Additionally, it shut the door on any possibility of seeing the top pick of the 2019 NFL Draft in action against the Cleveland Browns on November 5.

Murray's 21-day practice window started last week. The Cardinals are likely to exhaust the three weeks before elevating the Texas native to the active roster, SI.com reported.

Given that time frame, the earliest logical date when Kyler Murray may return could be November 12, when Arizona faces the Atlanta Falcons.

For now, Cardinals coach Jonathan Gannon will have to make do with Joshua Dobbs as the team's starting play-caller, with Clayton Tune serving as backup.
