The Cardinals are believed to be taking a cautious approach to Murray. Cardinals coach Jonathan Gannon said that the 26-year-old is fully healthy although Arizona will get no real incentive if they rush back Kyler Murray into action, ESPN reported.

Unless they reactivate him sooner, the logical date to see Kyler Murray return would be November 13 when the Cardinals face the Atlanta Falcons.

Gannon and the Cardinals are struggling this season with a 1-6 win-loss record. They are huge underdogs against the Ravens (5-2) heading into Week 8 per Forbes.
