BEDFORD, TEXAS: The official height of Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray is 5 ft 10 1/8 in (178 cm/ 1.78 m), slightly shy of the 6-foot mark.

Murray has some outstanding physical skills, like a cannon arm and lightning-quick speed, but he is also reportedly vertically challenged, and there has been debate about his height ever since the 2019 NFL Draft.

The issue of Kyler Murray's height surfaced in 2019 after a photograph made the #1 QB appear unusually short.

Kyler Murray's height controversy

Murray, the top overall pick in 2019, was seated in the front row for a photograph at the NFLPA's rookie premiere next to the Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marquise Brown.

Murray looked shorter than Brown, who is listed at 5 ft 9 in. Murray, on the other hand, measured 5-foot-10 at the 2019 NFL Combine. That metric contributed to his status as a top draft pick, per USA Today.

Murray joined the Cardinals in May 2019, and despite concerns about his height, he has excelled on the field ever since. However, the subject of Kyler Murray's height is still trending.

Kyler Murray's height compared to Marquise Brown

Kyler Murray is officially classified as being 5 ft 10 1/8 in (178 cm/1.78 m). Marquise Brown is reportedly listed as 5 ft 9 in (175 cm/ 1.75 m).

However, Murray's height was the subject of rumors after a picture from the NFLPA Rookie Premiere in Los Angeles surfaced. As mentioned, Brown appeared to be taller than Murray in the image.

This has fueled rumors that Murray isn't really 5 ft 10 in height. Nevertheless, the perspective of the image and Murray's posture may skew our view of their respective heights.

Kyler Murray's height compared to Russell Wilson

Russell Wilson and Kyler Murray are two quarterbacks in the NFL who are renowned for their agility and skill despite not being the ideal quarterback size.

Wilson's height is officially stated as 5 feet 10 5/8 in (180 cm/ 1.8 m).

Russell Wilson is therefore a little bit taller than Kyler Murray. Height isn't everything when it comes to playing quarterback, though, as seen by the fact that both of them had successful NFL careers.

Their backgrounds in baseball are both widely known, and Murray was also selected in the first round of the league when he was drafted into the MLB.

Their most spectacular college football triumph came with their second program while they were each students at two Power 5 institutions.

Is Kyler Murray the shortest quarterback in the NFL?

Murray was reportedly the shortest quarterback in NFL history to be taken first in the NFL Draft when the Cardinals selected him first overall in 2019.

"I'm always the smallest guy on the field," Murray told The Washington Post. "I’ve said it multiple times — I feel like I’m the most impactful guy on the field and the best player on the field at all times. I’ve always had to play at this height."

What is Kyler Murray's net worth?

Kyler Murray's net worth in 2023 is said to be $40 million. While this may sound excessive for a 26-year-old, Murray currently has one of the most lucrative average contracts in the NFL.
