The Facts: Murray is not expected to come off the physically unable to perform list when he becomes eligible Monday and still is considered weeks away from playing, league sources told ESPN.
Diehards Line:
Murray has not practiced since tearing an ACL in December against the New England Patriots. The former No. 1 overall draft selection wants and plans to return this season, but he slowly is ramping up his comeback in an attempt to rejoin the Cardinals, sources told ESPN. "It just doesn't feel like [Murray's return] is imminent," a Cardinals source said. The rules that govern activation from the PUP list also make it seem logical that it will be late October, at the earliest, before Murray returns to action. But if and when Murray is ready, Dobbs' time as the Cardinals' starter would be likely to come to an end. Gannon indicated earlier this month that the Cardinals would be cautious with Murray's return, saying that he is "not in a hurry" to activate the Heisman Trophy winner as soon as he is eligible. "[We would] love to have him out there," Gannon said on Sept. 22. "He's itching to be back, but we'll take that one day at a time."
