Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray is nursing a hamstring injury and is listed as questionable for his team's season finale against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday, but he says it is “good” and that he anticipates playing “as of right now,” according to Josh Weinfuss of ESPN on Twitter.

Murray left his team's win over the Seattle Seahawks this past weekend due to the injury. He completed 11 of his 18 throws for 118 yards and a touchdown while carrying the ball six times for 40 yards before exiting.
On the season overall, Murray has thrown for 3,397 yards, 18 touchdowns and 10 interceptions while completing 64.6 percent of his passes and posting a passer rating of 87.9. In addition, he has rushed for 544 yards and four scores.
The 22-year-old, who played his collegiate football at the University of Oklahoma, was selected by the Cardinals with the first overall pick of the NFL draft back in April.
Arizona had Josh Rosen, whom the club chose with the 10th overall pick in 2018, under center at the time but traded him to the Miami Dolphins to make room for Murray.
Murray has had a very impressive rookie campaign and briefly had the Cardinals in playoff contention after three straight wins between Weeks 5 and 7.
However, the Cards then went on to lose six games in a row to fall out of the playoff race, which also coincided with a couple of Murray's worst performances of the season.
The Cardinals have rebounded by winning two straight and are looking to end their season on a high note.
