Arians Compares Kyler Murray to Russell Wilson; Talks Jameis Winston-Bucs Future

After Kyler Murray thrashed his defense in Sunday's 30-27 win over the Arizona Cardinals, Tampa Bay Buccaneers coach Bruce Arians heaped praise on the No. 1 pick.

"Reminiscent of a young Russell Wilson, but faster," Arians told NBC Sports' Peter King. "He's so dangerous coming out of the pocket. Very, very impressed with him."

Murray threw for 324 yards and three touchdowns against one interception in one of the best passing games of his young career. The 5'10" quarterback has drawn comparisons to Wilson (5'11") because of their heights and similar skill sets.
