1 significant reason Kyler Murray continued to be connected to this Arizona Cardinals during the draft procedure was his intimate knowledge of the offense Kliff Kingsbury intends to bring to Arizona. That assumption hasn’t gone undetected through offseason workouts.
Larry Fitzgerald went so far as to say recently that the rookie quarterback knows the offense better than anyone else on the group. Murray won’t disagree with his Hall of Fame-bound receiver but noticed it is his job to understand the offense inside and out.
“Obviously, I’m more acquainted with itcoach Kingsbury knows it the very best,” Murray said after Tuesday’s minicamp, via the Associated Press. “With him (Fitzgerald) being a veteran, not having to visit the OTAs and me every day, studying it every day, yes I do understand it better. But that’s my job.”

Murray’s experience in wide-open offenses at faculty gives him a leg-up on some veterans, but he isn’t the sole player acquainted with all the verbiage or paths of Kingsbury’s scheme.
“There is probably some truth to it, having been in a similar system all those years,” Kingsbury said of Murray understanding the playbook better than the specialists.” (Receiver) Christian Kirk has a good feel for it as well. Some of the vocabulary and theories are really like what they’ve done before.”
Knowing the playbook is half the battle. Murray knows that guards may pick up on the programs as well, so that he must adjust accordingly.
“The windows are a good deal tighter, guys are a good deal smarter,” Murray stated. “They understand what you’re going to do before you even do ityou say hutthey already understand what you’re looking for. It is mind games, but it’s fun, a lot of competition — everything I believed it would be.”
The achievement of the 2019 Arizona Cardinals rests largely on the arm, legs, and brain of this rookie quarterback. Having a jumpstart on knowing the system can only be beneficial.
