Cardinals include curious ‘independent study’ addendum to Kyler Murray’s contract

The Arizona Cardinals made quarterback Kyler Murray one of the highest-paid players in the NFL with a $230.5 million contract extension that puts him under contract through 2028. Aside from the specific numbers and bonuses to the deal, the Cardinals included an odd addendum to the deal.

As reported by NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, there is an addendum for independent study, requiring Murray to study game material at least four hours on his own beyond what is done in team meetings.

It also defines that he must study “good faith,” meaning that he is actually watching the content on his device when it is playing and that he does not play content while watching TV, browsing the Internet or playing video games.
