Kyler Murray waits to measure up after picking NFL over baseball
FORT WORTH, Texas — Now that Kyler Murray has decided to play in the NFL instead of reporting to spring training as a first-round draft pick of the A’s, the questions can shift to the Heisman Trophy winner’s height.
The Oklahoma alum says everyone will get the answer to how tall he is at the NFL combine next week. Murray listed himself at 5-foot-10 on Monday before accepting the Davey O’Brien Award as the nation’s top college quarterback.
“I’ve been a 5-10 projected in the first (round). I mean, that’s crazy to me, the fact that I’m already projected that high,” Murray said. “I’m not over 6-foot. I haven’t seen that since I’ve been alive.
