One would think that coming off a career campaign, Kyler Murray would easily get a lucrative contract extension from the Arizona Cardinals. Well, the exact opposite has happened so far.
Until now, the star quarterback is still waiting for a new deal and recently, it was reported that Murray's agent has rescinded his initial proposal. It's not crazy to suggest that the Cardinals should make the 24-year-old QB their no. 1 agenda in the offseason.
But for former Cardinals running back Chase Edmonds, it's not surprising that the front office has yet to offer a bigger contract to Murray, blasting the squad in a report by Arizona Republic, as cited by Heavy.
“I just know, especially knowing how the last two years had ended, meaning 2021 and 2020, and knowing the type of competitor that K1 (Kyler Murray) is, and the type of winner that he wants to be. I knew there was gonna be, at some point, some things happening. Especially just because, you see the power that quarterbacks have now. They hold the weight, man, and you gotta pay ’em. I feel like K1 obviously got to do what he’s got to do to make sure he gets paid and take care of himself and take care of his family. Just in terms of that drama, you definitely saw it.”
Edmonds was clearly unhappy with the Cardinals as he recently left for free agency to join the Miami Dolphins. One might think that he just sounds like a disgruntled former employee, but clearly, Murray deserves better treatment from the Cardinals.
