Study" Addendum "Independent Study Addendum" received by Ian Rapoport of the Madden 23 coins Network, and it claims that the quarterback needs to study during the course of the season. Alternatively, the team has the right to place the contract in a default state that Murray will have to correct or the contract would be declared invalid.
"Player is required to complete at minimum 4 (4) hours of Independent Study (as as defined in the following) every week (excluding any bye week) in each Playing Season (as determined below) during the period for the Contact."
It then outlines what this meansand that Murray isn't able to multitask during the time he is required to study. There are no television, no video games Web browsing is not allowed during the four hours. If this sounds odd, it's because it's. This kind of study clause has never existed in a Madden NFL 23 agreement prior to now, and while on the surface it might seem like a big deal and we're already seeing what the implications of the decision.
The core issue with the addendum isn't mandating independent study, it's what the mandate intimates. The particularity of the clause would lead anyone to the one result: "Kyler Murray doesn't study so we're making him to." It's in contradiction to what the Cardinals had to do under the contract in question, which was to instill faith, place their faith in Murray and advance.
Murray's relationship and relationship with fans needs fixing. The fans were hurt, driven by rumors of possible trades and wanting out of Arizona. In addition, there was the anger at how he refused to go back to the field after losing a playoff game to the Rams. In a time when there was a need for even and trust built for all sides, the Cardinals included this clause and ruined it all. Perception is now reset and the perception that Murray isn't working hard enough -- or should be forced to "love" football (a lengthy pre-draft stipulation because of his love for baseball) remains in place.
The Arizona Cardinals made Kyler Murray one of the top-paid quarterbacks of Madden NFL 23 on Thursday signing a 5-year 230-million contract that includes $160 million in guarantees. But what do you know? He's worth it. Murray inspires angst when it comes to Madden NFL 23 fans. There were plenty of angered responses to Murray when I announced that he was one of the Top 5 quarterbacks of the madden nfl 23 coins on my 2022 rankings.
