There are reportedly serious issues between the Cardinals and the team’s star quarterback.
Kyler Murray recently nuked all references to the team on his Instagram page, and it seems like there are actual problems behind closed doors. (RELATED: David Hookstead Is The True King In The North When It Comes To College Football)

According to Chris Mortensen, Murray ” is described as self-centered, immature and finger pointer, per sources,” and the QB believes “he’s been framed as the scapegoat” for the team’s late season collapse.
The odd vibe between the @AZCardinals and Kyler Murray is indeed alarming:

Murray is frustrated with franchise and was embarrassed by playoff loss to Rams and thinks he’s been framed as the scapegoat— Chris Mortensen (@mortreport) February 13, 2022
Where’s it headed?
Despite the acrimony, the Cardinals expect things to calm down and Murray is their QB.
Select veterans hope to reach Murray on how he handle adversity better.
Coach Kliff Kingsbury also is self-scouting where he can provide better alternatives for QB.— Chris Mortensen (@mortreport) February 13, 2022
As soon as Murray nuked the Cardinals from his Instagram, I said there were problems going on, and it looks like I was 100% correct.
You don’t scrub your social media in that fashion unless there are legit issues.

Now, it sounds like both sides want to blame the other for whatever problems there might be. Welcome to 2022!
Nobody wants to take responsibility. Obviously, the team’s issues aren’t 100% Murray’s fault. He’s a talented quarterback, but there’s also something going on.
Whenever an adult man is described as “immature” and a “finger pointer,” you know you’re in a tough spot.

We’ll see how it all shakes out, but somebody needs to step in and calm this situation down.
