Murray's deep ball decline may reflect receiver changes, not lost skill; core abilities intact.
Kyler MurrayQB
Murray's deep ball accuracy and volume have declined since his 2021 PFF deep pass grade of 99.2, but the cause remains unclear. Some attribute the decline to changes in his receiver group since 2021 (similar to Aaron Rodgers losing Jordy Nelson in 2015 or losing Devante Adams before his final Green Bay season, and Patrick Mahomes' recent deep ball struggles with receiver injuries). Murray's core skills—processing speed, accuracy, all throws, pocket poise, and decision-making—are developed; his issues are consistency with these skills rather than fundamental development. He demonstrates advanced skills like throwing with anticipation and off-schedule scramble ability.

Overall, the jury is still out whether Kyler has lost something on his deep ball or if other circumstances have led to a decline in those stats... Murray wouldn't be the only quarterback to see declines in deep ball stats when they lose a key receiver(s).
