Kyler Murray will miss the upcoming game against the Indianapolis Colts due to a foot injury, paving the way for Jacoby Brissett to take the helm as the starting quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals.

Why it matters: Murray's absence highlights the challenges the Cardinals face in maintaining their competitive edge in a tightly contested season.
As he recovers from a foot injury sustained during a recent loss to the Tennessee Titans, Murray’s leadership and playmaking ability will be sorely missed.

What’s new: Brissett, a seasoned veteran with 53 career starts, steps into a pivotal role this week.

He has a record of 19 wins and 34 losses, with 53 touchdowns across his ten-season career.
The transition comes at a crucial time, as the Cardinals are looking to rebound after recent setbacks.

Yes, but: While Brissett brings experience, he has struggled in past seasons, raising concerns about his consistency.

Brissett last started in Week 5 of the previous season for the New England Patriots, where he led the team to only one win before being benched.
His performance during those five games included just a single victory, followed by four consecutive losses.

What to watch: The dynamic between Brissett and his teammates could play a significant role in the Cardinals' offensive output against the Colts.

Wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. expressed full trust in Brissett, emphasizing his leadership qualities: “I have full trust in Jacoby. I think the biggest thing, he's been such a good leader and mentor for me since he got here.”
Tight end Trey McBride highlighted Brissett's understanding of the game and ability to command the huddle: “He’s a guy that I have full confidence in... he’s going to go out there and make plays.”

The bottom line: Brissett’s ability to rise to the occasion will be critical for the Cardinals as they navigate through this challenging phase without their star quarterback.

Fans and analysts alike will be keenly observing how Brissett performs under pressure and whether he can leverage the support of his teammates effectively to secure a much-needed victory against the Colts.
