Oklahoma QB Kyler Murray won the Heisman Trophy last season and gave up his baseball career for a chance to play in the NFL.
Now, he’s getting a lot of buzz as the potential No. 1 overall pick in the 2019 NFL Draft, but there was some cold water thrown on those rumors on Tuesday.
Per longtime NFL GM and current NFL Network analyst Charley Casserly, NFL scouts and coaches really did not like the way Murray interviewed at the Combine:

A lot of these pre-draft reports have to be taken with a grain of salt, as we don’t know if it’s another team trying to get Murray to fall to them or not.
However, based on some of Murray’s pre-draft media interviews, it’s probably accurate to say he’s not so great in meetings.
