TEMPE Max Scharping Jersey , Ariz. (AP) — The Arizona Cardinals‘ rookies took the practice field for the first time on Friday, and all eyes were on quarterback Kyler Murray.Murray, the top overall pick last month in the NFL draft, sported a white tie-on headband as he threw over the outstretched arms of coach Kliff Kingsbury and looped on-target fade-route passes to receivers during the 25-minute window in which practice was open to media.Afterward, he was walking somewhat gingerly.“My feet hurt,” Murray said. “It’s been a long time since I put cleats on.”As it turned out, Murray had to wear new cleats while he waits for his custom footwear to get to him. Still, he completed his first team practice with his new teammates and NFL newbie Kingsbury.Murray has familiarity with Kingsbury’s wide-open offense http://www.texansauthorizedshops.com/authentic-kahale-warring-jersey , which plays to his athleticism and the systems in which he’s played in high school and college. Murray said that showed right away.“Obviously, it’s only Day 1, but I can already feel the rhythm going. Hopefully we can keep this thing going and do something great,” Murray said. “I was pretty comfortable, surprisingly comfortable as far as communication and stuff like that. It’s pretty similar. I think that’s helped me out a lot.”Kingsbury said Murray “can really throw it” and has “got a presence about himself, so I liked how he operated.” Kingsbury focused much of his attention on Murray in the first practice.“It’s always been hands-on for me. I’m going to be involved in coaching the quarterbacks as long as I’m a coach,” Kingsbury said. “I do think there’s a comfort level there.”Arizona signed the 21-year-old Heisman Trophy winner to a four-year contract Thursday worth about $35 million, with a team option for a fifth year. The contract includes a signing bonus of more than $23 million.“It’s obviously a great day for me and my family Cullen Gillaspia Jersey ,” Murray said about signing the contract.Big money aside, Murray said he feels like another rookie learning an NFL system along with everyone else on the field for the three-day mini-camp this weekend at Cardinals headquarters.“I really just feel like a normal guy,” Murray said. “We’re all here to work hard and get better.”Cornerback Byron Murphy, the Cardinals’ first second-round draft choice, said Murray is a good guy, a great leader, and that he looks forward to seeing his teammate make plays.Wide receiver KeeSean Johnson, a sixth-round pick Tytus Howard Jersey , said Murray showed leadership in the huddle from the very start of practice. And he was impressed with Murray’s arm.“Great balls coming in real nice,” Johnson said.Murray admitted he didn’t initially believe that Cardinals general manager Steve Keim made him the team’s starting quarterback for the regular-season opener in September. But when Keim told him in person, it was real.As for the shoes, Kingsbury had to answer a question regarding his level of concern for his high-profile quarterback’s foot soreness.“I think he’ll be all right,” Kingsbury said. “I guess the cleats he wanted didn’t get delivered. But we’ll try to get those here tomorrow.”NOTES: Kingsbury said he isn’t sure veteran CB Patrick Peterson will report to the team for veteran offseason workouts later this month, which are voluntary. Peterson appeared unhappy with the team in social media posts last month, but the Cardinals have indicated they don’t intend to trade the eight-time Pro Bowler. …The Cardinals signed the remaining five members of their 2019 draft class that hadn’t done so on Thursday. WR Andy Isabella (second round), WR Hakeem Butler (fourth round) Rock Ya-Sin Jersey , S Deionte Thompson (fifth round), OL Lamont Gaillard (sixth round) and DL Michael Dogbe (seventh round) signed Friday. … Twenty-eight players on the roster for the weekend minicamp are listed as tryouts. A common complaint made by high-profile National Football League players is that they are underpaid when compared with other professional athletes. Unlike deals that are made by owners of Major League Baseball and National Basketball Association franchises, NFL contracts are, for the most part, not fully guaranteed. A quarterback who has not yet won a Super Bowl for his club could, as an example, put pen to paper on a contract that could be worth up to $80 million, but only $10-17 million of that deal could be guaranteed. This gives a team the ability to cut ties with under-performing players without losing too much available salary cap space.NFL players earn every cent of their contracts each time that they take the field for a meaningful game. They put their bodies and even their long-term futures on the line every fall http://www.coltsauthorizedshops.com/authentic-ben-banogu-jersey , and careers can be over in an instant via a nasty hit or a misstep that leads to a torn ligament. The truth of the matter is that NFL players probably deserve even more cash than they take home when you consider the grueling nature of pro football. One way these great athletes pocket more money is through local and national endorsement deals that they are able to net.NFL player contracts are paid out in different ways. Along with base salaries, money is made via signing bonuses and also incentives. It is also not uncommon for a player to restructure his deal to free up some salary cap space for his team. This pushes the amount of money that player will receive back a year, but it does affect the guaranteed cash that he will eventually take home before his contract expires. You may, upon seeing how the numbers break down for just 2015, be surprised to see the names atop of the list of NFL players making crazy money for this year.
