LAS VEGAS — Speaking Wednesday for the first time about being struck in the face by a fan during the Arizona Cardinals’ celebration of Sunday’s comeback victory over the Raiders at Allegiant Stadium, quarterback Kyler Murray sounded as if he is ready to put the incident behind him.
“Stuff happens fast,” Murray said at his weekly news conference about the scene at the end of the Cardinals’ dramatic comeback win. “I don’t know. I know every person I’ve hit in the face, I did it for a reason.”
As for the fan who hit him, Murray said, “I don’t know if he probably didn’t know where he was — it was a pretty live game. Vegas is Vegas. I’m sure he was having fun. But — I don’t know — I don’t think any player should be getting touched in that manner.
