Kyler Murray stays on PUP list; Cardinals release Colt McCoy

The Arizona Cardinals have decided to keep Kyler Murray on the PUP (players unable to perform) list, which means that Kyler is ineligible to practice with the team for the next 4 weeks. Players on PUP do not count toward their team’s 53 man roster.

The #AZCardinals will keep QB Kyler Murray on the reserve/PUP list to begin the season, as Murray continues to recover from the ACL injury suffered late last season, sources say. He’ll be out at least the first four games, which is not a surprise.
