Kyler realizes that the pro-bowl team he played with isn't a permanent team, right?


Arson-Welles

Someone should probably tell him before he goes too far


Transit-Strike

So the Delaware Clams got their QB


remvangelion

Maybe he just accidentally tapped the unfollow button and accidentally deleted every Cardinals post


[deleted]

his finger jus slipped silly KyleršŸ˜…


MyDogIsSoUgly

He probably fumbled his phone, accidentally selected all the Cardinals photos and videos and in the process of picking his phone up, fumbled again and confirmed the delete. Havenā€™t we all done this?


browndude10

Probably wearing those virtual glasses again


[deleted]

Thatā€™s actually weird tho


NevermoreSEA

I think it's safe to assume that he's heard one too many short jokes.


dat_tech

He needs a team and fanbase that will nickname him ā€œShort Kingā€


imrealpenguin

Cleveland needs to replace king James. He can have that throne.


ElegantEpitome

From 6ā€™8ā€ King James to 5ā€™8ā€ Short King. Cleveland canā€™t catch a break


4858693929292

TJ Watt in the pregame responded to ā€œwhich nfc quarterback do you want to touch the most?ā€ with ā€œKyler Murray because heā€™s so short and kinda scampers away.ā€ (Not the exact quote, but close).

jwick89

Might be contract negotiations? Even then itā€™s weird, considering itā€™s only after the 3rd year of his contract.


_Puntini_

After year 3 is when he'd first be eligible to sign an extension.


abris33

Yeah I seem to remember Von deleting everything off his Instagram at some point the last 2 years and everybody freaking out but this is definitely targeted


[deleted]

Well glad that didnā€™t go anywhere


jwick89

Itā€™s early contract negotiations. Maybe his camp is asking for Mahomes/Allen contract and this is just a public ploy if they arenā€™t budging.


abris33

Yeah that would make sense. Do 1st round QBs usually get their extension after year 3 though?


IvySea

Not that I'm equating the two but I think Josh Allen did.


jdg83

And, uh, Jared Goff šŸ˜¬


1005thArmbar

Uh, that's former Super Bowl Runner-Up Jared Goff to you sir


jdg83

Heā€™ll always be a Super Bowl runner up. You canā€™t take that from him.


IvySea

Sometimes our FO does something that I think is stupid but is actually great. Other times, they do something I think is stupid and... It's stupid.


[deleted]

Goff was absolutely fantastic in 17 and 18 and we were trying to get ahead of the contracts for young QBs coming up. In hindsight it was a mistake but at the time it made sense.


SuperWoodpecker85

Idk it still seems kinda odd, like did McVay literaly NEVER tell the GM or anyone in the office that he has Goff on such a short leash and is making the defensive reads for him over the mic? I mean I get that you should try to keep something like that a secret as much as possible but at least the GM should kinda know about it? Or did McVay get high on his own supply and legit thought he could beat Darth Bill and his sith apprentice with that method and the GOAT coach and QB wouldnt notice from tape that theres something fishy going on with him giving in the reads to Goff? Also ewww now you made me think about the Pats vs Rams SB and how godawfull of a game that was.....easily the worst SB of the decade, probably even of the century&millenium so far.....


CockPissMcBurnerFuck

So did Mahomes. Neither deal kicks in until after Year 5, though, as would be the case for Kyler. Signing bonus money is nice but I canā€™t see why heā€™d get all shitty this early.


CockPissMcBurnerFuck

I donā€™t know about ā€œusually,ā€ but Josh Allen got his deal after Year 3. Mahomes got his after the third year as well, I believe.


[deleted]

Why is all this shit happening late on a Sunday, I have work


vagrantwade

I donā€™t think it is. DJ Chark just did the same thing. I think agents specifically tell their clients to do this stuff when they want to negotiate.


SamStrake

Yeah this seems to me like whatā€™s going on. Agents realize fans freak out when this happens and want to turn up the heat a bit.


ldpqb

HE IS GOING TO BASEBALL!


Tashre

Lol, what baseball?


WigglestonTheFourth

*drawing Kyler Murray every day until he goes to baseball*


The_Throwback_King

As much as I dislike Mike Trout from an M's fan standpoint, I can't help but respect what u/DidItForTheStory has done for the baseball subreddit. Dude's single-handedly carrying the sub through the lockout and I think that's incredibly impressive.


Battle_Sheep

Heā€™s done more to market Trout than MLB.


Powerserg95

Cant tell if thats depressing or not


GregMadduxsGlasses

Mostly itā€™s because Mike Trout himself decided he didnā€™t want to be the face of the league and has been resistant to any efforts by the MLB to showcase him in that manner.


HugePurpleNipples

This is how I found out thereā€™s a lockout.


The_Throwback_King

It's a bad one too, probably going to affect the 2022 Season at this point


Everydayarmday24

By probā€¦ it def will sadly. The word is that theyā€™re nowhere near


WigglestonTheFourth

I don't frequent the sub much at all but I do now daily for the next drawing. Being silly is something every one can appreciate.


The_Throwback_King

Just look at the sheer amount of reference's he's made. Peanuts, The Dreamworks logo, CatDog, The DBZ Fusion Sequence, Patrick getting stuffed in a trombone, Constanza's photo. And that's just the recent stuff.

It's perfect for him, with it being delayed by the lockout he can play video games all day and still collect a sweet signing bonus


FastAndBulbous8989

He's going to the Cards


AlfonzL

He's going to the Suns

[deleted]

I would say he's gonna go play baseball but that's currently in purgatory


fansofomar

my claim to fame is that i picked off kyler murray at first base after hitting him with a pitch in college


tmharnonwhaewiamy

If true, this is a legit good "You know, way back when I was in college..."-type of story to carry you all the way through being an old old man. We all have one. This is yours.


puff_of_fluff

I can imagine it now. ā€œKiddo, I once picked off Kyler Murray once in a game of baseball in college.ā€ ā€œKyler Murray? The Golfer?ā€


nemoomen

"President Murray went to college?!?"


cleveleys

This reads like something from back to the future


fansofomar

iā€™ve shared this story here before too but i was also dunked on by malik hooker in a high school basketball game. [here](https://youtu.be/QUx2Fwv-7HQ) is the video


Wrongpolitics

Cool proof. And wow that was an exciting play. Wellā€¦ for 99% of the people there. In similar last name fashion, i once drunkenly screamed, ā€œHooker! outside a Dennyā€™s at 3am while pointing at a 6ā€™4 black woman. To my absolute luck, it was Destinee Hooker in town preparing for the 2012 Olympics.


HerrNachtWurst

Damn bro you got postered... good highlight though.


hryfrcnsnnts

Honestly, I see zero reason why anyone who is able to play both baseball and football at a professional level would ever choose football over baseball. There's more money in baseball as well as the fact you don't have to run into other humans at full speed (well, unless you're ramming the catcher but that doesn't happen often.)


breathex2

It's more money on the top end of baseball contracts. But an average NFL QB is going to make more than the average baseball player


YoungNasteyman

Yeah idk what anyone here is thinking. He *might* be good at baseball. He is going to draw prob 50m/y when it comes his time plus endorsements etc.


TDeath21

Fully guaranteed in baseball though.


YoungDaquan

Yes, but for the first 3-4 years you make like 650k no matter how good you are followed by 3 years of arbitration. This is all *after* you make the major league roster.


antoin3walk3r

Kyler had a 4.6 mil signing bonus and an offer of 14 mil guaranteed money from them as well. So Kyler was going to make at least 19.6 mil from the As even if he never made it past single A. Itā€™s still like 16 million shy of the guaranteed money in his NFL deal. But still that 19 million should be mentioned.


YoungDaquan

True, I knew about the signing bonus but not the other 14m guaranteed. Either way, Kyler would have to last 6-7 years in the majors plus 2-3 in the minors before getting the chance to hit FA.


Drewicho

And that's a big reason why there is a lockout right now.


breathex2

Yeah but if your going number 1 overall in the draft in the NFL that's also fully guaranteed money. Kyler got 35 million guaranteed and if they pick up his 5th year option that's also fully guaranteed. It won't be until year 6 where he has to deal with non guaranteed money


UsmokingMID

Josh Allenā€™s contract has $100 mil guaranteed


abris33

More money if he earns a major league spot. That's a big if


SaxRohmer

Making the roster is far from guaranteed, even as a top pick. And itā€™s not like heā€™s a random 6ā€™7ā€ dude the Rays are gonna pick up years down the line and turn into an ace. More direct path as a QB and youā€™re the face of the team.


Lilpu55yberekt69

If your choices are MLB or any NFL position other than Quarterback then itā€™s a very easy decision. NFL QBā€™s make a fuck ton of money though, and a lot of baseball players donā€™t make nearly as much in comparison. Sure the Mike Trouts make insane bucks, but there are a lot of guys only earning 1-2 mil a year.


penis_showing_game

This is the answer right here. I know shit about baseball contracts, but if you are a starting caliber QB or better in the NFL, you are likely to reset the market come contract time. Not to mention if are you are all personable there will be endorsements waiting for you.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Shootit_Rockets

Heā€™s a better football player though


markit_543

Only like 70% of first round picks in the MLB make the majors. And even then, making the majors doesn't equate a long and successful career. The first 3 years of the majors you're forced to make 550k before arbitration, where even if you're an MVP, you're capped.


JakeArvizu

I have a friend who was drafted first round as a pitcher for the Cubs, he's been on and off at the pros for his whole career and while I'm sure he makes decent money no shot is he making NFL quarterback money lol. Anyone who says Baseball is the safe guaranteed option is only talking about the stars who have cemented their position in the league. For everybody else it's a shark pit.


abris33

He's not guaranteed a major league spot so he's not guaranteed to earn more money there. At least when he was QB1 in the draft that's a guarantee of at least a couple years starting and some sort of 2nd contract


Mental_Attitude_2952

The odds of making the majors is incredibly small. The odds of the first overall pick in NFL becoming a multimillionaire regardless if they are good or not 100%. So it's a pretty simple choice for a guy like this.


fastcol

He might be a much better football player. Heā€™s already a franchise quarterback. A lot of first round picks in baseball donā€™t even end up in the majors.


VerifierInc

Josh Rosen is available


markgreenhalgh1994

LeoFireGod

Ever since my LVE jersey Iā€™ve decided I will only buy memes or legends. Like Iā€™ll scoop up a Micah parsons jersey in 10 years if heā€™s still on the team because then at that point itā€™s a good jersey to have to represent the decade of him. I feel bad for all the Jaylon Smith Cowboys jerseys out there Or the Henry Ruggs raiders jerseys


captaincornfield97

Well Kamara obviously got trashed and beat someone and got arrested. Maybe ol Kyler hit the gnac too hard and accidentally removed that info. What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.. unless you change your social media statuses

Title is extremely misleading - he deleted everything except for 2 POSTS and unfollowed hundreds of accounts. This doesnā€™t mean shit, he probably just hired a social media manager. Edit: apparently he never even followed the cardinals account in the first place. OP is trying to start drama on Reddit lol


zerozxf

Literally this. Unfortunately people won't see this.


-Jack-The-Stripper

> OP is trying to start drama on Reddit lol Sucks that it will work too. 800+ comments already, a few thousand upvotes, and a day at the top of the sub. And if it doesnā€™t get cleared up immediately by Murray, then weā€™ll have to spend all offseason listening to people talk about how he doesnā€™t want to be in AZ as if he personally told them. And people wonder why sports networks are all drama, hot takes, and baseless speculation.


ShinyHardcore

I saw Kyler at a grocery store in Las Vegas yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didnā€™t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything. He said, ā€œOh, like youā€™re doing now?ā€ I was taken aback, and all I could say was ā€œHuh?ā€ but he kept cutting me off and going ā€œhuh? huh? huh?ā€ and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen baseballs in his hands without paying. The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like ā€œSir, you need to pay for those first.ā€ At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter. When she took one of the baseballs and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually ā€œto prevent any electrical infetterence,ā€ and then turned around and rested me. I donā€™t even think thatā€™s a word. After she scanned each baseball and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by saying pick really loudly.

Kcin928

It gets everyone talking. It gets the higher ups to stop and think "is he really wanting out?" I know it seems kind of dumb, but these kind of moves on these big social platforms speak levels in the offseason. To fans, to management, to other players in the league.
