Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray won the Associated Press Offensive Rookie of the Year award.

The No. 1 draft pick in the 2019 NFL draft flew under the radar a bit in his first season. He didn't post historic numbers, and the Cardinals only won five games en route to a fourth-place finish in the NFC West. Both factors probably deflected attention away from his performance.

Arizona made a big investment in Murray. Beyond taking him with the first overall selection, the team moved on from 2018 first-rounder Josh Rosen after only one year.
