Kyler Murray was not a fan of his Madden rating.
The Arizona Cardinals WR had major issue with Aaron Rodgers getting disrespected with an 89 rating, and was even more disgusted with his own rating.
Earlier this week, it was unveiled that the reigning NFL Offensive Rookie of the year and former No. 1 pick is just a 77 overall.
“Honestly, I thought you were joking when you said that,” Murray said on ESPN’s First Take, reacting to the rating. “I ended the year as a 77. I can’t say everything I want to say on the air right now. I kind of take it as disrespect but it is what it is.”
“I let my play speak for itself, so hopefully it’ll bump up during the year,” Murray added.
When asked by Stephen A. Smith who he blames for the poor rating, Murray said he doesn’t know who to talk to.

“I’ve talked to a lot of guys who work with Madden, and I’m really shocked that I’m a 77 overall. I don’t really know what to say. Oh man, that’s tough.”
Murray’s first year in the league saw him rack up 3,722 passing yards and 544 rushing yards.
