The Arizona Cardinals have been anxiously awaiting the return of their star quarterback, Kyler Murray, after he suffered a leg injury in Week 11 of the 2020 NFL season. After a few weeks of uncertainty, the team has finally released a timeline for Murray’s recovery and return to the field.
Murray suffered a Grade 2 hamstring strain in his right leg during the Cardinals’ Week 11 game against the Seattle Seahawks. The injury forced him to miss the remainder of the game and the following week’s matchup against the New England Patriots. After an MRI revealed the extent of the injury, Murray was placed on injured reserve, meaning he would be out for at least three weeks.
The Cardinals have now released a timeline for Murray’s return to the field. According to the team, Murray is expected to begin running and throwing drills within the next two weeks. He will then progress to more strenuous activities, such as taking part in team drills and participating in full practices.
The team is optimistic that Murray will be ready to return to action by Week 17 of the regular season. This would give him enough time to get back into game shape and be ready for the playoffs, should the Cardinals qualify.
The Cardinals are hopeful that Murray will be able to make a full recovery and return to the field in time for the postseason. His return would be a huge boost for the team, as he is one of the most dynamic players in the league and has been instrumental in leading the Cardinals to a 7-5 record so far this season.
The team will continue to monitor Murray’s progress closely over the next few weeks and will provide updates on his recovery as they become available. With any luck, Murray will be back on the field in time for the playoffs and help lead the Cardinals to a deep postseason run.
