When the Arizona Cardinals signed quarterback Kyler Murray to a contract extension worth more than $230 million that locks him up through 2028, they included an addendum requiring him to do at least four hours of independent study of game preparation material at home. It delineated specifically that the studying had to be when he wasn’t playing videogames, watching television or browsing the Internet.
That led to widespread criticism of Murray and the team across all platforms of news and opinion.
According to NFL Media’s Ian Rapoport, that addendum has been pulled from the deal and scrapped. That happened on Wednesday, a day before Murray address the media Thursday in an impromptu press conference to address what has been said about his work ethic.
