Cardinals inform Kyler Murray of pending release

The Arizona Cardinals have struggled in recent years, and the team appears to want to turn the page. Arizona is going to move on from Kyler Murray as their quarterback, per ESPN.

“Sources: Cardinals have informed QB Kyler Murray that they intend to release him on the first day of the league year next Wednesday, barring a trade between now and then,” Adam Schefter posted to X, formerly Twitter.

Murray struggled to stay healthy during his time with the team. The 2025 season turned out to be an extremely frustrating one for Murray and Arizona. The Cardinals won just three games.

“Arizona already owes him $36.8M guaranteed in 2026, and another $19.5M would have triggered on March 15 for 2027. He now will be moving on,” Schefter added.

Murray finished the 2025 season with 962 passing yards and six touchdowns. He went down with an injury and ended up playing in just five games.

This story will be updated.
