Overview
- Arizona has engaged other teams about a potential Murray trade during the NFL Scouting Combine, according to an NFL source.
- Murray’s representatives prefer a release so he can hit free agency and are meeting with the team in Indianapolis this week, with no decision expected there.
- General manager Monti Ossenfort says all options are on the table and describes good dialogue, but ESPN reports he and Murray have not spoken since the season ended.
- If Murray remains on the roster past March 15, $19.5 million of his 2027 salary becomes fully guaranteed, heightening pressure to finalize a trade that offers clearer cap relief than a cut.
- Team and league sources describe Arizona’s frustration with Murray over health, leadership and mobility concerns, while Jacoby Brissett’s strong 2025 performance provides a credible bridge option.
