\n

Arizona Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon shot down questions of a permanent quarterback change on Monday night, moments after Jacoby Brissett led the team to a 27-17 victory over the Dallas Cowboys.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

Gannon was quick with an answer when asked if he would keep Brissett as the team’s starter in place of Kyler Murray when the latter returns to health.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

“Nothing’s changed on that,” Gannon said. “That’s how I feel.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

Reporters began to ask follow-up questions before Gannon pulled the plug on the topic.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

“I’ve got nothing to add on that, guys,” Gannon said. “Like I said, nothing’s changed.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

Brissett completed 21 of 31 passes for 261 yards and two touchdowns to help the Cardinals (3-5) snap a five-game losing skid on Monday.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

Arizona visits the NFC West co-leading Seattle Seahawks (6-2) on Sunday.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

Brissett, 32, has thrown for 860 yards with six touchdowns with one interception in three games in place of Murray, who has missed the past three games since injuring the foot during a Week 5 home loss to the Tennessee Titans.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

Murray, 28, has completed 68.3% of his passes for 962 yards with six touchdowns and three interceptions in five starts this season. The two-time Pro Bowl selection has rushed for a team-high 173 yards and one score.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
