Could Kyler Murray come back to baseball after being cut by Cardinals? What A's GM said about his MLB future

  • Next week, Kyler Murray will hit free agency when the Arizona Cardinals release him at the start of the NFL league year, and he is expected to draw interest across the open market.
  • After seven seasons in Arizona, Murray's tenure is ending because his early success was overshadowed by persistent injuries and no playoff wins, prompting the team to move on.
  • The Athletics still retain Murray's MLB rights, and GM David Forst said the door is "always open" for a return to baseball if he chooses, while Murray is expected to sign a veteran-minimum NFL deal to offset $36.8 million owed this year.
  • In New York, the Jets could offer Murray a short prove-it deal amid a rebuild with Garrett Wilson and Breece Hall, as teams seeking reclamation quarterbacks see him as a cheap upgrade.
  • Longer term, Murray's decision will shape how NFL franchises managing rebuilds and dead money land reclamation quarterbacks, as a baseball switch would likely end his NFL prospects and cost him millions.
