Welcome back to the Minicheim show featuring Lenny only NFL podcast.

One of the hosts gets slapped with the tag every day.

That's Lenny. I guess he just leaves the tag on. I'm Minikimes. It's franchise tag day.

But it's also the NFL news is coming fast and furious right now, including Kyler Murray being released.

I'm going to talk about that with my guest, Dan Pizzuta, Dan.

I don't even know where to be.

The Murray thing is crazy because we knew it was going to happen.

But seeing it,

he just posted, you know, he's going to, he's thanking everyone for his time in Arizona.

It's now been reported that because of the amount of money he has guaranteed $37 million in

2026 with offsets, he can play somewhere for the minimum.

I mean, this is massive news.

Yeah, it was one of those things where we kind of felt like this was common.

There was always the chance of a trade.

And I think the reporting still, as we hear, is they're going to release them barring a trade. So I guess that's still possible. But if now you know you're going to have Kyla released and you can possibly just get him on the minimum because of that guaranteed salary he's already getting paid. Why would you give anything up, especially because I think if he's on the

roster for on March 17th, which is why this is happening now, his 2027 salary gets guaranteed

too. So I think if you are a team who is potentially looking for Kyler, you're just waiting

for him to get released.

I think that makes a lot of sense for like a Minnesota now.

That probably wasn't a team that made a lot of sense trading for him and taking on all that money.

But now if you can fit him in on something that's pretty small, fits under your cap.

Makes a lot more sense.
