The Super Bowl week is here, and the most fascinating story so far has been delivered by the Arizona Cardinals star Kyler Murray. The 24-year-old quarterback scrubbed all references of his franchise from his Instagram handle. Furthermore, in an attempt to show dissent, he has even unfollowed the Cardinals on Instagram and Twitter.
On one hand, there is Joe Burrow who is about to be featured in his first Super Bowl, while, on the other hand, there is Kyler Murray, who is applying pressure on his franchise. Two very talented young quarterbacks, yet two very different stories.

Murray was the first overall pick for the Cardinals in 2019. Since then, he has only brought value to the team. Though he led the franchise to just five wins during his rookie season, he still claimed the Offensive Rookie of the Year that season. In the 2021 season, he helped the Cardinals clinch their first playoff spot since 2015 with an 11 win season including a 7-0 start.
