In 2014, I was attending the college graduation of a friend when I heard the Kansas City Chiefs drafted Aaron Murray.
I was excited to hear the news. Murray threw for 13,166 yards in college and was the SEC’s all-time passing leader. He is ahead of second-place David Greene by almost 2,000 yards despite missing games his senior year. Alex Smith had just played amazing in a playoff loss and Chase Daniel was probably only going to be a career back-up so I was pumped that the Chiefs had drafted such a prolific player.
Murray had potential to be the quarterback of the future for the Chiefs, or so I thought.
