In his absence, quarterback Kyler Murray of the Arizona Cardinals has had a front-row seat to watch as his team has struggled to a 1-8 start.
After sustaining an ACL tear during the previous season, the star signal caller is finally cleared to play this week and is aware that he will be rejoining a team that is far superior to its record.
