Steve Keim: “Kyler Murray works, but his tape studio can improve”
The Cardinals made front-page covers in July of last year by extending QB Kyler Murray, albeit with a clause that required his quarterback to spend a minimum of four hours a week in solitude studying playing material, but that quirk didn’t go down well. by the general public and days later the team decided to remove it. The damage was done, however: Murray’s work ethic was out in the open, and it is once again.
In a healthy move, Steve Keim ended his tenure as the Cardinals’ general manager in early January. Keim, 50, was responsible for taking Murray with the first overall pick in the 2019 Draft, and was also the one who offered him his contract extension for 5 years and 230 million dollars, being 160 million dollars fully guaranteed. However, Keim, who is no longer part of the team, reiterated this Thursday that Murray needs to grow and study.
“It still needs to grow,” Keim said, via arizonasports.com. “He is not a bad guy, he is a good boy, he has a good smile, he has a good way of being. It’s like anything else: kids have to learn what it takes to be great. Does he know what Tom Brady and Peyton Manning know about what it takes to be great? No. Do you work? Works. It’s just that side of the game – tape studio, attention to detail can and will improve. He is proud, he does not want to lose or let people down.
Murray, 25, has been a two-time Pro Bowler, but has only led Arizona to one playoff game, where he was terrifying. Also, he is currently recovering from an ACL tear that ended his 2022 prematurely: “He is headed in the right direction, he just keeps getting better and better. There are only moments of inconsistency. His height hurts him sometimes, looking over the line, processing and seeing the field. But at the same time, he is a tremendous talent. What he does, you see in practice and games, he is off the charts,” Keim concluded.

Tyreek Hill criticizes Christian Kirk’s contract with the Jaguars
Last December, WR Tyreek Hill, who came to the Dolphins for the start of the previous season after a trade between Miami and Kansas City, he assured that WR Christian Kirk, of the Jaguars, was “one of the five best receivers” in the league, but that does not mean that he should have a better salary than him. The 26-year-old Kirk signed a four-year, $72 million deal with Jacksonville in March 2022, and until then without a season over 1,000+ yards, he took Hill and the market by storm.
In appearance in Sports Radio 810 WHBAlong with former Chiefs teammates FB Anthony Sherman and WR Gehrig Dieter, Hill said Kirk’s contract prompted him to request an extension with Kansas City, who sent him to Miami and offered him a $30 million deal. annuals for four seasons, making him the highest-paid receiver in the league: “Christian Kirk got a crazy deal,” Hill said. “He signed the deal, he beat me, and I’m like, I compete on the field, and also in the business. I will not let Kirk have a higher contract than mine. Just no”.
Hill, 29, cashed in on his new contract and last season had 119 receptions for 1,710 yards, his best to date. However, despite currently being considered one of the fastest players in the league, and although everything would indicate that his game shows no signs of going down, he knows that no one escapes time, which is why he also mentioned that he plans to retire. at the end of the 2025 Season, when by then they have already played 10 seasons in the league.

Brandin Cooks on the Texans in Week 18: “You don’t equip yourself to lose”
Almost a month ago, the Bears and Panthers traded the first overall pick heading into the 2023 NFL Draft, although to make a transaction of that caliber, you must first have the honor of having finished as the worst team in the league a season earlier, and that was Chicago, but it may not have been. When Week 18 began, the Texans had the lowest mark of all, however, they unexpectedly beat the Colts and with that victory they fell to second place in the incoming Draft.
Regarding the above, WR Brandin Cooks, who a couple of weeks ago was sent from the Texans to the Cowboys in exchange for a fifth-round selection for the 2023 Draft, as well as a sixth round for the 2024 edition, said he did not regret having won that game against Indianapolis, as players never want to lose: “Well, you never equip yourself to lose, right?” Cooks told Adam Schefter’s podcast ESPNvia the Dallas Morning News.
“The first pick is available, but at the end of the day, you go out between those white lines, as a competitor, you don’t go out saying, ‘I’m not going to give them everything because I want them to have the first pick.’ You go out and give it your all and let the chips fall where they may, and it turns out to be one of those situations where it’s a bitter nail. Most people probably say, ‘Wait, why are they winning?’ We don’t play to lose, at least from a player’s point of view,” Cooks concluded.
The Texans won that game against the Colts 32-31. In the win, the 29-year-old Cooks led Houston with 5 receptions for 106 yards, including a 30-yard catch on a fourth down and 12-yarder that allowed his team to create a game-winning drive. Undoubtedly, many fans of the team would have preferred to be defeated by Indianapolis, but, as much in Chicago as in Carolina, surely they deeply appreciate Cooks’ performance.
