Kyler got benched and refused to come back is how I will always see it.
I suppose we will find out one way or another at some point. Or maybe we won't. I just know something happened between Gannon at the podium after the Dallas game saying "Kyler is the starter when he's ready" like he had been for weeks to two days later "Brissett is the starter, Kyler is on IR."

My guess is Monti stepped in, which means Bidwill stepped in, and told Gannon to make that move. Which, I don't care what you think about Kyler as a player, is dysfunctional as an organization. And the team promptly went off the rails after a GOOD win.

I have no special insight, just my guess.

It'll be interesting to see if Murray is willing to accept a backup role om another team. Darnold, Jones, Mayfield, Jameis, Marriota, Zach Wilson, Trubisky, were all top 10 picks that became backups.
It doesn't seem like he has the temperament to be a backup.
He will be a starter next season for sure.

It’s posts like these that make me think you guys don’t actually watch the NFL.

Most teams QBs aren’t good. K1 will play in this league till he says he doesn’t want to.

Considering both Daniel Jones & Aaron Rodgers been pedestrian since those injuries were announced & their teams have came back down to earth because of it, don’t think them playing through those type of injuries are ringing endorsements.
No one said it was the correct decision in terms of winning football games, but it sure as heck says a lot about toughness and personal accountability, and respect for your teammates. It may be ill-advised, but I want my leader to have the ego that says without him, the team is in trouble, and he HAS to play. It becomes med staff and coaches responsibility to shut that down. We of course, fail on both sides of that coin.
