It should be a fire able offense to not be able to unload Kyler Murray for anything when Malik Willis is about to get $40MM guaranteed.
Agree. To get nothing for a former #1 overall pick in the draft is very Monti-esque

I think the Browns got something for Baker when everyone knew they were moving on.

And another thing, I didn’t like when ML lied about K1’s situation when he was hired. I get the pressure to save face for the organization, but idk, he could have just declined to comment.

Just felt like he set the tone for his tenure and that he’s gonna be lying a lot when asked difficult questions. This is probably a very unpopular opinion but I just don’t like being lied to.

They got a fifth round pick for him on his fifth-year option. He had a $15MM cap charge.

I don’t think it was necessarily a coach’s decision here.

To everyone that supported me and showed kindness to my family and I during my time in AZ, from the bottom of my heart, thank you.

I wanted nothing more than to be the one to end the 77 year drought for this organization, I am sorry I failed us. I wish this community and my brothers nothing but the best.

I am no stranger to adversity, I am prepared for whatever’s next. I trust in God and my work ethic. I truly believe my best ball is in front of me and I look forward to proving it.

Godspeed.

"my work ethic."

The decision to bench him and run with Brissett was definitely made from up above.
I wonder how the decision to place him on IR/not return him was made.
I’ll go on record and predict a Jake Plummer in Denver type post-Cardinals performance for Kyler. A couple solid years with the right situation before physically imploding again
Seems like the most likely scenario. Will he win a playoff game elsewhere??

Gotta give him credit for a classy adieu. We all know it would have taken a Warner-like talent to lift this mess of a franchise to the heights Murray says he hoped to achieve.

While I wish it worked out and I was proven wrong... it was never a secret I didn't particularly care for him as our QB. I'm happy to finally be moving on, so we can stop the debate. (Or at least get an answer as to whether or not he was the problem, or the teams around him.)
It feels a lot like Deandre Ayton.

Waited so many years for this to happen. Was never so depressed with feelings of hopelessness since 2021 not withstanding some dark days in this team's history including moving. It is like the first warm day after a cold long snowy winter.

This is pretty much exactly what I’m expecting.
