Perhaps but at $160 mil. Guaranteed I doubt he cares nor would I. You could put any language in a contract I’d like to see what language they used as a repercussion, I’d be willing to bet there are none. Who’s to say that’s not standard language in every qb contract? I’m asking, I’m not sure?
Here's an article on the contract. It does appear to be a requirement that is not usually in player contracts but it does say it requires him to watch film study in good faith so I'm not sure how that can be enforced unless he just flat out says he isn't going to study, Regardless, it's in his contract so someone is suggesting he studies film.
Nobody is denying his talent. He's just never going to reach his full potential because he's a lazy entitled brat. You can get away with not working hard when your that talented at the high school and college level. But when you get to the NFL it's a different story.
In theory yes. Bidwills and King Roger could give two shits though. This is their game.
I think the team feels ok about it or they wouldn’t have guaranteed the $160 mil. Lol
You are talking about the Cardinals organization though. They don't exactly have a great track record of making great decisions. I think they just saw it as not having many other options other than Murray. They already spent a first round pick on Josh Rosen 4 years ago and he's not even on the team anymore.
But do you think about his haircut.I'm a Kyler Murray fan, but I'm not a fan of people who get paid big bucks getting by with as little work as possible. I see that every day and it pisses me off. Perhaps the Cards are circumventing another JaMarcus Russell story.
From the link:
"...a version of the story from Warren Sapp, who was a teammate of Russell's on the Oakland Raiders. The coaches would send Russell home with a game-plan DVD loaded with plays and ideas to study. Suspecting that their bonus-baby quarterback was skipping his homework, the coaches slipped in a blank DVD one day. When Russell returned, he reportedly said the game plan looked good to him."
JaMarcus Russell and the Raiders' blank DVD caper
This week's "The Rich Eisen Podcast" sheds light on a story of the Oakland Raiders sending JaMarcus Russell home with a game-plan DVD. Find out what happened when Russell reported back.www.nfl.com
He had a guilty conscience. The idiot came out and admitted in an interview with the New York Times last year that he doesn't watch much game film. Here's the article.

He is the N.F.L.’s Gatsby, mysterious and magnetic, with a brain hard-wired to win. Ask him about the touchdown pass he meticulously mapped out in his mind five days before he threw it.www.nytimes.com

Well.........and extremely wealthy LOL. If the team agreed to take the language out of his contract it must not have been much of a pressing issue, I mean you don't give a guy $230 MIL/$160 GUARANTEED if you don't think he's a tremendous asset to your team, at least I wouldn't? I do agree that hairdo is pretty knappy though
Plenty of guys get paid big money in the NFL that are mediocre. QBs are just so hard to come by that if you got one that’s top 15 then pay him regardless. He already came out in an article in the New York Times last year and said he doesn’t watch much game film. He’s 22-23-1 as a starter. I don’t see him improving much from that down the road.
