Is Cardinals QB Kyler Murray interested in playing baseball?

It appears this story is not going to die down any time soon.  A first-round pick of the Oakland Athletics in 2018, Kyler Murray opted to give up a near $5 million signing bonus to play in the NFL. The former Heisman Trophy winner was ultimately selected No. 1 overall by the Arizona Cardinals in the 2019 NFL Draft and is coming off a brilliant rookie season. Any thought that Murray playing two sports would be a thing of the past can now be thrown out the window. The electric young quarterback just indicated he’d like to add to his resume playing baseball and football in the same calendar year, according to Bob McManaman of AZCentral.com. We’re not sure where to begin with this one. Was Murray talking in hypotheticals or is it something he’s really interested in doing? It’s certainly something to keep an eye on as his NFL career continues to blossom. As it relates to any future in Major League Baseball, the A’s still own Murray’s rights.
