2019 NFL Draft: Cardinals will pass on Kyler Murray, per report

For months now, it seems almost like a foregone conclusion the Arizona Cardinals will take Oklahoma quarterback Kyler Murray with the top pick in the 2019 NFL Draft.

But according to a report from CBS Sports’ Pete Prisco (h/t NBC Sports Bay Area), the top-drafting Cardinals may be opting to go another direction.

Here’s what Prisco said on CBS Sports HQ:

Initially, the ownership pushed for Kyler Murray. That much I know, I was told that. The reason they did is they are having a hard time selling tickets. Well, they put it out there.
