Cardinals Kliff Kingsbury praises Kyler Murrays new deal At his best I dont know whos better in NFL

Kliff Kingsbury with the this offseason, and on Thursday, . Now, with locked up through 2028 on a $230.5 million deal, Arizona's head coach is praising the move, telling "" on Friday that the former No. 1 overall draft pick is already on a fast track to being one of the game's top players."He's gonna continue to get better," Kingsbury said of his QB. "The contract deal, I feel really good about. We know he's our Jose Osuna Jersey future here. And the talent -- I've said this since I got here -- is generational, with what he can do running, throwing the football."I knew when we drafted him that he had a chance to be one of the top guys in the league, and I think he's proven that. ... We know what he brings, and Josh Harrison Jersey every Sunday we line up with him as quarterback, we have a real chance to win in a game."But isn't Kingsbury concerned about the way 2021 unfolded, with Arizona starting hot and slumping late, and Murray once again struggling to stay healthy or stay consistent down the stretch? Not really. The coach told Pasch that the QB faced an uphill battle "trying to get back up to speed (in the thick of a) playoff hunt" without his best receiver, then-injured .More than that, Kingsbury believes Murray's talent remains unmatched by most other QBs around the NFL.

"He's improved the organization, he's improved the team." A two-time Pro Bowler, Murray briefly appeared to enter the MVP conversation early in 2021, before an ankle injury sidelined him for three games. He was already under contract through 2023 before signing his five-year extension, and on his new deal, starting in 2024, he'll average $46.5 million per season, the second-highest total among QBs behind only the ' Josh Bell Jersey .
