For the first time since 2020, his second year in the league, Murray started each of Arizona's games last season. It was a welcome sight after the former No. 1 overall pick missed six games in 2022 and nine more in 2023 after tearing the ACL in his right knee. Despite starting all 17 games, however, Murray put up middling numbers: 3,851 yards, 21 TDs, and 11 INTs through the air. He averaged a career-best 7.3 yards per carry, a sign that he had renewed confidence in his knee's stability, but he ran less than ever, posting a career-low 4.6 rushing attempts per game.
One of the big storylines entering last season was the arrival of a "true No. 1 receiver" in the form of Marvin Harrison Jr., the fourth pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. The results were disappointing. There were obvious communication errors throughout the season between Murray and Harrison, and the duo has reportedly spent extensive time working out together in Arizona during the offseason in an attempt to remedy their timing and execution issues.
Improved chemistry between the two, along with a better grasp of the offense following another offseason under third-year coordinator Drew Petzing, could go a long way toward pushing Murray into a higher echelon of NFL (and fantasy) quarterbacking. Entering his age-28 season, the diminutive QB claims to be in the best shape of his career and feeling great. That's all well and good for June, but his size is always a concern as he has tended to wear down over the course of 17 games.
Murray retains top-10 fantasy appeal due to his dual-threat skillset, though he's a notch or two below top mobile quarterbacks like Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson, Jalen Hurts, and even Jayden Daniels.

Vikings sign QB Kyler Murray to one-year deal
Arizona will pay QB $36.8 million
By: Mike Krueger | Thu Mar 12, 6:19 pm
|  | Former Cardinals QB Kyler Murray is signing a one-year deal with the Vikings, per sources. Murray now will become part of a QB room that includes former No. 10 overall pick J.J. McCarthy.
With Murray already owed $36.8 million from Arizona, his one-year contract with the Vikings will be for the veteran league minimum. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: McCarthy is not going to beat out Murray for the starting job in Minnesota this season. In all likelihood, the Vikings will be looking for a QB in the 2027 draft. For now, Murray lands in probably the best spot possible under HC Kevin O'Connell and with arguably the best wide receiver in the league. Murray played in just five games last season due to a sprained foot.
| Kyler Murray's time in Arizona coming to an end
Expected to be released on the first day of the league year
By: Mike Krueger | Tue Mar 3, 3:56 pm
|  | Sources: Cardinals have informed QB Kyler Murray that they intend to release him on the first day of the league year next Wednesday, barring a trade between now and then.
Arizona already owes him $36.8M guaranteed in 2026, and another $19.5M would have triggered on March 15 for 2027. He now will be moving on. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: Murray's next team will pay the league minimum for his services as Arizona owes him $36.8 million next season. Atlanta and Minnesota are potential landing spots. Murray played in just five games during the 2025 season due to a foot injury sustained in Week 5.
| Cardinals hire Rams' OC Mike LaFleur as head coach
Five-year deal
By: Mike Krueger | Sun Feb 1, 2:39 pm
| | The Cardinals plan to hire Mike LaFleur as their head coach, sources tell me and @RapSheet.
LaFleur, 38, spent the past three seasons as Sean McVay's OC with the Rams. Now, Matt LaFleur’s younger brother gets his shot to run the show in Arizona. (Tom Pelissero on X)
FFToday's Take: Arizona (3-14) reportedly talked to Seattle OC Klint Kubiak but it sounds like he is going to take the Raiders HC job after the Super Bowl. LaFleur has been with McVay the last three seasons but hasn't been calling plays, for what that's worth. The status of Kyler Murray is the biggest question for the Cardinals' offense heading into 2026 - he has almost $40 guaranteed for the upcoming season.
| Kyler Murray could be had for a second-round pick?
QB will likely be traded if Arizona's brass wants it to happen
By: Doug Orth | Mon Jan 26, 8:30 pm
| | An NFC source believes the starting price for Kyler Murray, if Arizona is interested in trading him, could start with a second-round pick. That source believes if the Cardinals can trade Murray, they will. (ESPN.com - Josh Weinfuss)
FFToday's Take: The notion that Murray could be traded is not a surprising one, but the likely return that Arizona wanted was more of a mystery. A source - via ESPN.com's Josh Weinfuss - is speculating that the limited crop of elite quarterback prospects in this draft will drive up the market for capable (or better) starters like Murray. Some of his more obvious shooters would likely be the Dolphins, Jets and Browns.
| Drew Petzing lands Detroit OC gig
Takes over for fired OC John Morton
By: Doug Orth | Mon Jan 19, 4:20 pm
|  | The Detroit Lions are finalizing a deal to hire former Arizona Cardinals offensive coordinator Drew Petzing as their next offensive coordinator, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter. (ESPN.com - Eric Woodyard)
FFToday's Take: This is far from an inspiring hire for the Lions. Petzing was able to help James Conner enjoy the first two 1,000-yard seasons of his career, but the inability to get the most out of Kyler Murray and Marvin Harrison Jr. falls on his shoulders to some degree. It also took him too long to make Trey McBride the centerpiece of the passing game. On the plus side, it is hard to ignore how much production he got out of Jacoby Brissett and Michael Wilson at the end of the year - even if most of it was in garbage time. Without question, Petzing will be set up for more success in Detroit with multiple explosive playmakers and a much better offensive line.
