The Cardinals will release QB Kyler Murray when the new league year starts on Wednesday, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports. That's barring a trade happening before now and then -- which won't. Arizona owes Murray $36.8 million guaranteed in 2026, and another $19.5 million for 2017 would have triggered on March 15 if Murray was still on the roster. So this move has been expected for a while.

The Cardinals are hiring Mike LaFleur as their new HC, according to multiple reports. Arizona becomes the 10th and final team to fill a head-coaching vacancy this offseason. The Cardinals were in the mix for several other candidates, including Klint Kubiak, who accepted the Raiders’ head job yesterday. In the end, Arizona was the last team without a partner before landing on LaFleur.

Cardinals QB Kyler Murray will not return this season, according to HC Jonathan Gannon. Gannon commented that Murray isn’t progressing as the team hoped and thus will not be available at all this season. Murray suffered a mid-foot injury in Week 5 and was placed on IR on November 5th. Jacoby Brissett will QB the team for the rest of the season.

Cardinals HC Jonathan Gannon said Monday that QB Kyler Murray (foot) will not be designated to return from IR and practice this week. So he's out for Sunday's game vs. the Rams. QB Jacoby Brissett will make his eighth straight start in that one. He's finished as a top-12 fantasy QB in each of his first seven starts of the season. Sunday will be his toughest test yet against the Rams' sixth-ranked QB defense.

Cardinals QB Jacoby Brissett threw for 301 yards, 2 TDs, and 1 INT in Sunday's loss to the Buccaneers. He added 16 yards on three rushes. Brissett enters the Sunday night game as the QB8 for Week by ESPN scoring.

Cardinals QB Kyler Murray was placed on Injured Reserve with his mid-foot sprain. Murray appeared close to returning last week, but was inactive in Week 9. QB Jacoby Brissett was announced as the starter for Week 10, but he steps in for the next four games as the Cardinals starting QB.

Cardinals HC Jonathan Gannon announced Tuesday that he'll start QB Jacoby Brissett on Sunday at Seattle. But he stopped short of extending the decision beyond this week.

Cardinals QB Kyler Murray (foot) is inactive for tonight's game vs. the Cowboys. QB Jacoby Brissett makes his third straight start. He played reasonably well in his first two and gets a cushy matchup in this one against a defense supplying a 47.6% boost to QB fantasy production.

Cardinals QB Jacoby Brissett will start Monday night's game vs. the Cowboys, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. QB Kyler Murray, who has been limited in practice this week, is "making progress" in his recovery from his sprained foot and "could have a role" against Dallas. We hear about teams potentially playing two QBs every so often -- and it rarely actually happens. We're projecting Brissett to play every snap in this cushy matchup, making him a strong QB2 and even a low-end spot-starter in 1-QB leagues. The news doesn't tangibly impact either WR Marvin Harrison Jr. or TE Trey McBride. Both guys are strong Week 9 starts.

Cardinals QB Kyler Murray (foot) was on the field for the start of Friday's practice, but QB Jacoby Brissett was throwing to the first-team WRs, according to ESPN's Josh Weinfuss. HC Johnathan Gannon expressed optimism about Murray's Week 9 status on Thursday morning, but Murray was limited in practice later that day. It's now looking like Brissett will get another start on Monday night vs. Dallas. Brissett played well in two starts prior to the Cardinals' bye, throwing for 599 yards, four TDs, and one INT on 7.5 yards per attempt. He's at least a strong QB2 in this dream matchup against the Cowboys and could even be a serviceable QB1 spot starter.

Cardinals QB Kyler Murray (foot) was limited in Thursday's practice. HC Johnathan Gannon said earlier today that the team was preparing for Murray to start Monday night's game vs. the Cowboys, but it looks like he's still not at 100%. We'll keep you updated on Murray's status over the next few days. He still packs plenty of upside against Dallas' league-worst QB defense, even if the foot adds some risk.

Cardinals HC Jonathan Gannon said Thursday that the team is preparing for QB Kyler Murray (foot) to start vs. the Cowboys on Monday night. Murray missed Arizona's last two games, and then got another week off with the bye. He'll return for a dream matchup against the Cowboys' 32nd-ranked QB defense. All eight QBs to face Dallas this season have finished top-13 at the position in fantasy points on the week, including five top-six finishes. The matchup has Murray sitting very high in the Week 9 QB rankings.

Cardinals QB Kyler Murray (foot) is inactive for Sunday’s game vs. the Packers. ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported Saturday night that Murray is expected back after the team’s Week 8 bye. QB Jacoby Brissett makes his second straight start today after posting a 320-2-1 passing line vs. the Colts last week. The matchup is much tougher this week, so Brissett is just a low-end QB2. But he keeps TE Trey McBride and WR Marvin Harrison Jr. fantasy viable.

The Cardinals are "planning to start" QB Jacoby Brissett vs. the Packers tomorrow, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. That's the vibe we've gotten all week, with Murray remaining limited in practice. Brissett played well against a banged-up Colts secondary last week, throwing for 320 yards and two TDs. But he faces a much tougher test this weekend vs. the Packers. Brissett is just a low-end QB2 in fantasy lineups, although he doesn't project as a huge downgrade from Murray for WR Marvin Harrison Jr. and TE Trey McBride

Cardinals QB Kyler Murray (foot) is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Packers. He was limited in practice all week. We’re tentatively expecting QB Jacoby Brissett to get another start this weekend but will keep you updated on the situation. A less-than-100% Murray would be a shaky fantasy play if he starts vs. a tough Green Bay defense.
