wow! Thought this was some sort of a joke until I saw it was from Upland. Can't believe this is his 12th season! If you had asked me I would've guessed 7 tops. sigh......... time really does fly when you're old.

Long injury history, also has an irregular heartbeat.

and the AZ Cardinals keep getting worse. Kliff for sure is getting fired. this team is a complete rebuild

How much longer could you stay with that circus of a franchise?

watching Hard Knocks they have a good group of guys but I think it all comes down to Kyler. He isn't a leader and it is obvious. They need to somehow trade his ass and start over IMO.

Trading Kyler's Contract may be harder than us trading Goff's.

I agree especially now after the injury

If I was a part of the Cardinals, I would retire or hang myself as well.

Murray is trash... Cards will suck for years and I love it

Twelve year of high end play, even with the injury history. The irregular heartbeat & a newborn, who had medical issues if I recall correctly, should be enough to convince someone to get out while they are still "relatively" healthy.

the heart issue shook him up big time. not surprised he is retiring

Was a time they were saying that about us.

Carson Palmer and then Kurt got them back to relevancy. They have receivers, need an upgrade at RB, and probably should start looking for a new "franchise" QB. They aren't that far off and probably in a little better shape to improve than we are

Need a new coach, or a new QB, maybe both, and like other franchises, could probably use new ownership, but best they'll get is 2 of the three

Always going to be an issue with mobile QB's, especially smaller ones. All it takes is that one hit and your mobile guy may not be as mobile going forward.

Smart move. Watt has an engaging personality so I think he will be scooped up by TV quickly unless he wants to coach. And I’m sure Wisconsin would have a job for him if he wanted one

[UplandRam]

Based on his contract incentives, if he gets 1/2 sack over the next two games… he scores another million bucks.

agree with you but he has made so much money I think he is going to sit back and relax and enjoy his newborn son
