Per the team’s injury report, Murray has been limited in practice this week. Head coach Kevin O’Connell told reporters on Monday that Murray was able to participate in team meetings despite the head injury.
With Murray out, Carson Wentz will again step up as the team’s QB1. Wentz went on to rally Minnesota to victory over the Packers to open the season.
