This week, CBS Sports’ Will Brinson ranked his NFL quarterback tiers into seven groups; led by Patrick Mahomes, Joe Burrow and Josh Allen at the top.
And despite a pair of Pro Bowl appearances and an Offensive Rookie of the Year Award, Kyler Murray finds himself second from the bottom. Grouped with unproven commodities Sam Howell, Jordan Love, Desmond Ridder and fellow OU Heisman winner/No. 1 pick Baker Mayfield.
“I love it,” Murray laughed.
😂😂😂I love it.

Murray is coming off a rough season that was cut short by an ACL tear in Week 13. He likely won’t be back until the second half of 2023.
