The team has eliminated the mandatory “independent study” clause in Murray’s extension, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported Thursday evening.
“After seeing the distraction it created, we removed the addendum from the contract,” the Cardinals said in a team statement, obtained by NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo and Rapoport. “It was clearly perceived in ways that were never intended. Our confidence in Kyler Murray is as high as it’s ever been and nothing demonstrates our belief in his ability to lead this team more than the commitment reflected in this contract.”
