Heading into the NFL Combine last week, it was known that QB prospect Kyler Murray would not be participating in any on-field drill. So besides his measurement, Murray was going to have to impress teams with his interview skills.
According to NFL analyst Charley Casserly, that did not happen.
Casserly, a former General Manager with the Texans and Redskins, gave his thoughts on how Murray did and it’s safe to say he was not impressed.
Casserly stated:
“In the interviews, I talked to more than one team —- more than two teams, I’ll leave it at that —- I got exactly the same story. They were not impressed with his leadership skills or potential for the interview. They weren’t impressed with his study habits, and I can’t give you the quotes but they’re pretty bad.”
Casserly did explain that you can’t, “decide on a player’s future for 15 minutes,” but continued to harp on the fact that teams were very underwhelmed with how Murray performed in the setting.

Maybe Murray just sucks in interviews.
He went on the Dan Patrick Show and gave a pretty awkward performance.
Red flag.
