Cardinals Release Kyler Murray as New League Year Begins

Kyler Murray confirmed on social media that he will be released by the Arizona Cardinals when the new league year starts on March 11. He thanked fans and his family for their support during his time in Arizona.

Murray’s tenure ended after a 3‑14 season, limited to five games last year due to a foot injury, and a backup quarterback controversy that saw Jacoby Brissett step in. The Cardinals, who finished 3‑14 and fired coach Jonathan Gannon, had reportedly been frustrated with Murray’s performance and the $36.8 million guaranteed he earned.
