ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) \u2014 Kyler Murray was inactive for Arizona\u2019s game at the Dallas Cowboys on Monday night, meaning coach Jonathan Gannon\u2019s suggestion that his starting quarterback could have a role behind Jacoby Brissett won\u2019t happen coming off the Cardinals\u2019 bye.<\/p>\n

Murray was expected to return from a foot injury with a three-week break that included missing two games. The Cardinals changed course<\/a> late in the week, after indications in practice that Brissett would get a third start.<\/p>\n

Murray was listed as questionable after the 2019 No. 1 overall pick was a limited participant in practice all week.<\/p>\n

Gannon said Saturday that Murray wouldn\u2019t start, but wanted to wait until closer to kickoff to see if there might be a way to get him on the field in a limited role.<\/p>\n

A big part of Murray\u2019s game is his scrambling ability, which makes a foot injury particularly problematic. He\u2019s run for nearly 3,200 yards and 32 touchdowns over his seven-year NFL career.<\/p>\n

Brissett has played well in Murray\u2019s place, throwing for 599 yards, four touchdowns and one interception in two starts, but the Cardinals lost both games. They\u2019re on a five-game losing streak since starting the season 2-0. The fives losses were by a combined 13 points.<\/p>\n

Murray is 9-0 at AT&T Stadium. He won high school championships there and a pair of Big 12 titles with Oklahoma. Murray beat the Cowboys twice with the Cardinals. One of his nine victories came as a backup with Texas A&M.<\/p>\n
