Arizona Cardinals: Kyler Murray appears to have bulked up

One of the most-known knocks of Kyler Murray heading into the 2019 NFL Draft was his height and weight. Standing at 5-foot-10 with a projected playing weight of 195-pounds in college, Murray was able to evade pressure and keep his jersey clean. But that playing weight would be less than ideal as the quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals going after NFL defenders.

Many see similarities in Murray to Seattle Seahawks’ quarterback Russell Wilson. And for good reason, both are under 6-foot and are pass-first shot-callers with the legs to run laps around defenses. However, Wilson’s combine weight was 204-pounds, and his current playing weight is 215-pounds.
