QB Kyler Murray at Combine: 'I was born to be a football player'

INDIANAPOLIS – If there was any lingering doubt about Kyler Murray’s athletic and professional allegiances, he definitively put them to rest late Friday afternoon.

“I was born to be a football player,” the Oklahoma quarterback said at the Scouting Combine, where he is meeting with prospective teams – including the Giants – about his NFL future.

Murray’s baseball talents are nearly as good as his quarterback skills, and the Oakland A’s are still holding out hope that they can convince their first-round pick to play in the Major Leagues. But Murray is adamant about what he wants to do.
