Kliff Kingsbury Now ‘Praying’ For Kyler Murray’s Contract Situation To Go Away

Kliff Kingsbury would go on to say he doesn’t know if Kyler Murray would show up to Training Camp if they’re unable to get a deal done.

“I’m not sure,” Kingsbury said of Murray showing up for camp without a new deal. “That’d be a Kyler question. But I, just personally — I’m being selfish here — would love for him to be there the first day of training camp.”

Regardless of the noise surrounding the situation, Kliff Kingsbury remains confident that a record-breaking deal will get done with Kyler Murray.

“We’re about to make him, I’m sure, the highest-paid player in this franchise’s history and so he understands what comes with that,” Kingsbury said. “The guys know what he can be at his best, and anytime we can get the whole band out there, things pick up.”
