“To me, these are the guys that go on to the Super Bowl. Allen, Brady, Burrow, Herbert, Mahomes. Rogers Matthew Stafford, Russell Wilson. I think Derek Carr and Kyler Murray are darn close. Lamar Jackson, maybe two I’m not sure. I think Kyler, I think Dak, and Lamar can win maybe a playoff game or two. I think Derek Carr’s darn close, I like Derek way more than the market. And I think Kyler is very special.” he added in his short speech.

Surprisingly, the Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson and Arizona Cardinals’ signal-caller Kyler Murray is not on the preference list.

Kyler Murray bags a humongous deal

The Oklahoma product surprised the fans with his recent contract that he signed last week. The deal assures him $46.1 million per year on average, putting him just behind the Packers’ QB Aaron Rodgers. Murray will get $105 million at the time of signing, making him one of the highest-paid quarterbacks in the NFL.

Despite all these developments, the thing that caught everyone’s attention was a special clause that was included in Murray’s contract. It contained a compulsory “independent study” clause that keeps the quarterback busy with having homework, apart from team meetings and training sessions for four hours every week throughout the season.
