The Facts: A handful of days’ worth of team video calls have allowed HC Kliff Kingsbury to reflect on how far Murray has come in the past year. “I try to talk to him at least once a week if not more,” Kingsbury said of the franchise quarterback. “He’s doing great. When you watch the installs with him, when you watch plays from last year, you notice how far he’s come since training camp on. There’s definitely a different level of confidence, a different level of command of the offense and he feels it. Even though we haven’t been able to get out on the grass, he definitely feels a lot more comfortable heading into year two.”

Diehards Line: While Murray stepped into a starting role last summer with a grasp of the offense after being drafted No. 1 overall, nothing could prepare him for NFL life. The speed of the game took time getting used to. Complex defenses and mental time-clock recalibrations took much of the season to work through. The soft-spoken Murray also required time to grow into a leadership role. To Kingsbury, there was immense development in all those avenues by the end of 2019. And now it sounds like Murray’s comfort in football terms has already shown in remote install work. It'll be something worth watching and following up on when the team ultimately takes the field.
