It was just over a month ago, after the Pro Bowl, when the Internet was set ablaze by the news that Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray had “scrubbed” his Instagram account, removing all but two posts, one from his Heisman Trophy win and one gallery of photos from the Pro Bowl.
It has led to discussion of his contract, whether he wants a trade, whether he is threatening to go back to playing baseball and more.
There have since been reports of conflict with the team, belief that he is immature, then everything was fine and then his agent released a statement calling for a contract extension now.
However, the social media scrub is over. Murray’s Instagram page has all his previous posts restored, 371 of them. He apparently had archived them.
If we are to react the same way we did when the posts disappeared, it must mean a contract extension is coming and everything is good, right?
After all, if the removal of posts meant something, restoring them must also mean something.
