Shipley then questioned why Kyler Murray was making a big fuss about the clause days after putting pen to paper on the new contract. He said: "We talked about [the clause and] four days later because now it's become a big deal. Like I don't really get that. And at the end of the day, if you want to talk about how well you prepare and all your study habits, then why are we holding a surprise press conference four days into training camp? You know what I mean? Like I don't really understand this whole thing." Shipley also hinted that the Cardinals forcing Murray to study film for only four hours a week independently suggests he doesn't do it as much as most quarterbacks do: "But at the end of the day, like they sit there and ask for somebody to what put four hours film study in a week. Like that you talk to most quarterbacks, that's laughable. They do that on a Monday morning."
