The Seattle Seahawks may not have their quarterback situation figured out, but their division rivals in the Valley of the Sun certainly do. On Thursday morning, the Arizona Cardinals signed quarterback Kyler Murray to a remarkable extension. This ends an offseason wrought with plenty of drama, as the Cardinals lock up their franchise signal caller and Murray gets the financial security he was looking for.
According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Murray’s extension is a five-year deal worth up to $230 million dollars, with $160 million fully guaranteed. Murray’s per-year average salary will trail only Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers, and his guaranteed money is second only to Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson.
Cardinals are giving Kyler Murray a five-year, $230.5 million deal that includes $160 million guaranteed, per source. It gives Murray the second highest paid QB average at $46.1 million per year. https://t.co/tTnUJXGSm3
