Summary
The Arizona Cardinals are still on the hook for $36 million of Kyler Murray’s salary this season—even though he’s now playing for the Vikings. After deciding to move on from their first-overall pick, the Cardinals ate the rest of his contract to start fresh, letting Minnesota acquire a QB already being paid handsomely. Murray, essentially a $40 million QB this year (90% paid by Arizona), now faces the challenge of securing the starting role and helping the Vikings return to the playoffs. For Arizona, this bold move clears the way for a full rebuild and a potential draft pick at QB in 2027. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
