The team plans to release the 28-year-old on the first day of the new league year next week. Murray confirmed the split on social media and said sorry for not delivering over his seven years there. This move helps the Cardinals dodge extra costs. They already owe him $36.8 million guaranteed in 2026. By cutting him before March 15, they avoid another $19.5 million that would kick in for 2027. Murray struggled last season with just 962 passing yards, six touchdowns, and three interceptions over five games. A foot injury sideline him for the rest. In his career since being the top pick in 2019, he started 87 games with a 38 win, 48 loss, and one tie. Record. Fans and analysts see this as a fresh start for everyone.

1:01Murray has dealt with injuries, missing 30 games total, and only made one playoff appearance plus one pro bowl nod. Meanwhile, back up Jacobi Bressette stepped up big last year, throwing four 3366 yards, 23 touchdowns, and eight picks. He's locked in for next season. New head coach, Michael Floor, might target a better system fit. Like free agent Jimmy Garoppolo, who he's worked with before. Support for this DNN episode comes from our sponsor.
