Jason Smith: āAs embarrassing as this is ā and it is ā here is our franchise guy who doesnāt work hard enough... Thatās why this story makes me mad. Kyler Murray gave an interview with the New York Times last year and said he doesnāt feel like he needs to watch a lot of game film because heās blessed with the natural ability to see whatās going to happen on the field and he can go on from there, so I 'donāt need to watch film'... But thatās NOT that, do you know what this is? Itās āI DONāT FEEL LIKE I SHOULD HAVE TO DO THIS! I DONāT WANT TO DO IT SO IāM NOT GOING TO! IāM NOT GONNA GO TO THE LENGTHS TO BE THE BEST PLAYER I CAN BE!' Itās just being lazy. Thatās all heās doing, heās being lazy. Watch film and do what other great quarterbacks like Russell Wilson, Aaron Rodgers, and Tom Brady do all the time? āNAHHHH, I DONāT NEED TO DO THAT, MAN, IāM GOOD ENOUGH JUST AS IT IS WITH MY OWN PHYSICAL SKILLS!āĀ Thatās what pisses me off because the one thing I hate is people who are lazy. When I see someone like Kyler Murray be like āYeah, I donāt need to watch thisā⦠Dude, everybody watches film, itās how you get better. āNO, I DONāT NEED TO, I JUST NEED TO DO MY OWN THING ON THE FIELD!ā I mean, cāmon, really? Thatās what makes me upset about this story. Kyler Murray is just an athlete who feels like āI donāt need to worry about anything else, I just need to go out and do my own thing.ā Youāre a quarterback, man, youāre responsible for your team, youāre responsible for the players that you lead, youāre responsible for ALL of it. Why do you think there was kind of a frosty reception this offseason when you were at odds with the Cardinals? People know who works hard and who doesnāt, and Kyler Murray does not. The Cardinals giving him that money knowing that this is what they needed to do to make sure heās prepared for it? It doesnāt make any sense and it pisses me off about this story because I hate when lazy people succeed.ā (Full Audio Above)
Listen to Jason Smith of Fox Sports Radio blast the Cardinals for giving a $230.5 million extension to 'lazy' Kyler Murray, as embarrassing news surfaced on Tuesday that revealed Murray's new contract has a 'study hours' clause in it to make sure the fourth-year quarterback is actually putting in enough work looking at game film.
Check out the audio above as Smith explains how pathetic this special clause really is, and how much this is an indictment on a player in Murray who has already publicly admitted that he doesn't watch a lot of game film and that he's already blessed with the ability to break down the defense in real-time instead.
