Kyler Murray's agent, Erik Burkhardt, released a lengthy statement Monday saying they have sent a detailed contract proposal to the Arizona Cardinals.

Murray is scheduled to make about $5.4 million in 2022, with a base salary of $965,000 and a $4.5 million roster bonus that's fully guaranteed on the fifth day of the league year.

While Burkhardt did not provide specific details, he said Murray's proposal is "in line with the current quarterback market" but lowers his 2022-23 salary cap number to allow the Cardinals to re-sign "other deserving teammates and add additional free agents."

Burkhardt says it's now up to Arizona to make the deal, adding that "Kyler remains hopeful that the organization chooses to commit so that he can continue leading the Cardinals to further success and value for many years to come."

Baker Mayfield will likely be the starting quarterback for the Cleveland Browns in 2022, but the team will explore all options at the position this offseason.

Mayfield and his representatives are scheduled to meet with the Browns at the NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis. Mayfield is set to play under his fifth-year option this coming year.

He is coming off January surgery to repair a torn labrum in his left (non-throwing) shoulder.

Following a social media cleanse and reports of immaturity, Kyler Murray and the Arizona Cardinals are now on the same page. 

"Everything is copacetic" reports NFL Network's Jane Slater.

The Cardinals are now working to exercise Murray's fifth-year option or agree to terms on a long-term deal. Murray has one season remaining on his current deal.

Aaron Rodgers will be informing the Green Bay Packers of his decision soon, according to league sources.

There are multiple teams with offers on the table for Rodgers, but nothing can happen until the Packers allow a trade.

A number of teams are expected to change quarterbacks this offseason.

Deshaun Watson remains a hot name, but his legal situation complicates any effort to work out a trade from the Houston Texans.

Watson faces two issues, civil and criminal. Rusty Hardin, the quarterback's lawyer, said earlier this week that he expects the grand jury to make a decision regarding whether Watson will be charged with any crimes and the level of the charges (felony or misdemeanor) will be determined by April 1.

The civil cases, brought by 22 massage therapists, undoubtedly won't be settled.

According to a source, multiple teams are willing to trade for Watson as long as his criminal situation is settled.

Brian Gutekunst says he never promised Aaron Rodgers he would trade him after the 2021 season.

When Rodgers returned to the Green Bay Packers last July from his offseason hiatus, both sides made it easier to separate this offseason based on adjustments to his contract.

It has been widely believed that Rodgers and the Packers had a handshake agreement that if the quarterback still wanted out after the 2021 season they would trade him.

"That was not something I told him," Gutekunst, who has full control over roster moves, said. "Again, I think the whole conversation with Aaron last season before he came back was that, regardless, at the end of this past season, that we would sit down as a group and we would work it out one way or another."

Aaron Rodgers said Tuesday that he did not have any news to report or a decision made about whether he will play in 2022.

While appearing on "The Pat McAfee Show," Rodgers attempted to explain a social media post on Monday night that appeared to reflect on the quarterback's lengthy career.

"There's nothing cryptic about gratitude," Rodgers said.

"You've got to kind of turn everything else off, so you're not working out, you're not straining or anything. It's kind of a re-centering. It not only heals you physically, but I think it takes away mental stress and then the spiritual part I think is it allows you to kind of enjoy the meditations a little more, so when I come out, my first thought is intense gratitude for the people in my life," he said.

His 41-minute appearance on the show was more about reflection than looking toward the future, although Rodgers said he had "a few more things to contemplate but it won't be long" before he decides whether to play in 2022 and if so, if it's for the Green Bay Packers.

The Carolina Panthers have called the Minnesota Vikings about a trade for Kirk Cousins, according to a report.

Cousins has a fully-guaranteed salary of $35 million for 2022 and a cap number in Minnesota of $45 million. It's the last year of his deal, and the franchise tag for 2023 would cost more than $60 million.

The Vikings have said that, as of now, they have no plans to trade Cousins.

Deshaun Watson has begun evaluating potential landing spots with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Minnesota Vikings on his list.

Watson has a no trade clause in his contract and will look for the right blend of offensive system, coaching, talent and the chance to win.

Watson preferred the Miami Dolphins at last year's trade deadline, but no move was consummated. The Dolphins hired Mike McDaniel to replace Brian Flores and appear to be committed to Tua Tagovailoa. 

Watson's defense of 22 civil cases alleging sexual assault and/or inappropriate behavior during massage sessions remains unresolved. 

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are leaving the door open for Tom Brady to return should he change his mind about retirement. If Brady decides to remain retired, the Buccaneers will explore a trade for Deshaun Watson or Russell Wilson.

The Bucs paid Brady over $44 million in 2021 as part of a contract that was renegotiated after their Super Bowl win last February.

Wilson, 33, reiterated in a SiriusXM interview on Friday that his "hope and goal is to be back (in Seattle) and keep winning there" and his relationship is closer than ever with Pete Carroll, who speaks with Wilson regularly.
