Who Should I Start? Kyler Murray or Trey Lance

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray noted in an interview with ESPN that he wants the team to improve this season in situations when the original play call breaks down. "It's just we have to be better on off-scheduled plays because, obviously, I have that ability to make extend plays, and we have the guys to go do it off schedule," said the former Oklahoma Sooner. "So, I believe that's an area we got to be better at." Arizona is looking for Murray to make a jump this season, and they're hoping he can get back to some of the improvisational tendencies he displayed when he bolstered WR DeAndre Hopkins as one of his weapons. The 27-year-old has been put in a situation to succeed, though it hinges on his own development. He's one of the more intriguing mid-round QBs due to his rushing upside.

The Los Angeles Chargers have agreed to terms with free-agent quarterback Trey Lance on a one-year contract worth up to $6.2 million. ESPN's Adam Schefter reported the news. The North Dakota state product will join his third squad after the San Francisco 49ers selected him third overall in the 2021 NFL Draft. Lance spent last season with the Cowboys and passed for 266 yards and one interception with no touchdowns in four games (one start). He added 41 yards on 11 rushes. He projects to compete with teammate Taylor Heinicke for the second-string QB job behind Justin Herbert. Due to injuries and inefficient play, the 24-year-old hasn't been afforded much playing time. However, his athletic, toolsy upside could give him a chance to unseat Heinicke as the QB2 in L.A.
