Kyler Murray Rumors: Cardinals Not Expected to Trade QB, Budgeted for New Contract

The Arizona Cardinals and Kyler Murray may be at a standstill in contract negotiations over a long-term extension, but an eventual agreement is still the most likely outcome.

ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reported Sunday that executives around the league don't expect the Cardinals to trade the star quarterback. He continued:

"They think that Arizona knows that they have a good situation with him, a franchise quarterback. And that really Arizona, I'm told, has budgeted for having to re-sign Murray for a while now. They knew this day was coming, just probably a little earlier than they thought it would based on the pressure that Murray and his agent have put on things.
