Murray has certainly brought the momentum he gained from his impressive rookie season into a campaign worthy of being included in the MVP debate. He has led the Cardinals to a 6-3 mark. Their 32-30 win over Buffalo on Sunday placed them atop the NFC West.
On the season, Murray has recorded 2,375 yards, with a league-leading 604 rushing yards. He also has 17 passing touchdowns, including Sunday's miraculous DeAndre Hopkins conversion.
Kyler Murray has been shattering records left and right, and could be well on his way to becoming the first player to notch 4,000 passing yards and 1,000 rushing yards in one season. In addition, he could also become the first player to record at least 30 pass touchdowns and 15 rush touchdowns in one campaign.
With his historic campaign, the 23-year old phenom definitely has the ingredients to win MVP in just his sophomore campaign.
