Quarterback Kyler Murray returned to practice on a limited basis on Friday, but his availability for the Arizona Cardinals’ game Sunday at Indianapolis remains questionable, according to the Friday injury report.

Defensive end Darius Robinson has been ruled out for the game with a pectoral injury, Gannon added.

Arizona listed linebacker Mack Wilson Sr. (ankle), cornerback Max Melton (hamstring), receiver Zay Jones (knee) and backup linebacker Cody Simon (knee) as questionable.

The Cardinals added punter Blake Gillikin to the practice report Thursday for a back injury that limited him, and he was ruled out on Saturday. The team added free agent punter Pat O’Donnell to the active roster Friday as insurance.

Defensive lineman Bilal Nichols (personal) was added to the injury report on Saturday and was ruled out.

Murray didn’t practice on Wednesday or Thursday as he recovered from a foot injury.

The quarterback briefly exited last Sunday’s loss against the Tennessee Titans after a play during which center Hjalte Froholdt snapped the ball into his facemask. Murray went to the locker room shortly after.

Backup quarterback Jacoby Brissett took three snaps before Murray returned to the game.

Murray has not missed a game since the 2023 season when he returned from his ACL tear. In five games this year, Murray has completed 68.3% of his passes for 962 yards, six touchdowns and three interceptions. He has added 173 rushing yards on 29 attempts.

Brissett signed with Arizona this offseason to provide an experienced backup who started five games in 2024.
