In doing so, this would be the first professional start of Tune’s career.
A few weeks ago, Tune made his first NFL appearance in the 20-10 loss to the Seattle Seahawks on Oct. 22.
There, Tune would record a completed 4-yard pass.
Still, Murray has not officially been added to the 53-man roster after suffering an ACL injury on Dec. 12, 2022 against the New England Patriots.
However, Murray has been practicing since returning from injured reserve back on Oct. 18.
Just yesterday, it was announced that Murray was listed as questionable and may have a role in tomorrow’s matchup in Ohio.
As of now, there is speculation as to if he will even feature tomorrow.
Furthermore, the Cardinals could sign quarterback Jeff Driskel to the main roster as a backup for Tune if Murray is unable to suit up.
