Kyler Murray's Cardinals Contract Deemed 'Not Tradeable' by NFL Execs amid Rumors

Multiple NFL executive believes the Arizona Cardinals will encounter serious trouble if they attempt to trade quarterback Kyler Murray

"That's just not a tradeable contract," one NFL executive told The Athletic's Jeff Howe.

"Moving that contract is problematic," another exec said to Howe.

Murray signed a five-year, $230.5 million contract extension that runs through 2028. As Howe noted, Murray is due a fully guaranteed $35.3 million salary next season, and he'll get another $11.9 million for 2025 if he's on the roster on March 17, 2024.

If the Cardinals want to move Murray, they'd likely prefer to do so before March 17 to avoid incurring that hit.
