Overview
- Coach Jonathan Gannon said Tuesday that Brissett will start at Seattle, confirming the veteran’s fourth straight start after a 27-17 win in Dallas.
- Brissett has completed 65.2% for 860 yards with six touchdowns and one interception over three games, and Arizona has averaged 25.7 points per game in his starts compared with 20.6 in Murray’s.
- Murray has been out since Oct. 5 with a foot injury, and multiple consultations outlined a 4–8 week recovery window with increased setback risk if he returns too soon, per ESPN reporting.
- Gannon added that Brissett would start against the Seahawks even if Murray were healthy, saying he likes how the offense is operating under the current plan.
- The move comes on a short week before a divisional road game, and the shift has renewed scrutiny of Murray’s role going forward given his sizable contract and recent inconsistency.
