Betting odds favor Larry Fitzgerald’s retirement; Murray in running for MVP

April 15, 2021 by ArizonaSports.com - 98.7 FM Leave a Comment



We are officially just 15 days away from the 2021 NFL Draft. Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald’s future remains firmly up in the air.

With each passing day, the speculation grows as to whether or not the 11-time Pro Bowler will suit up for an 18th season.

So much so that SportsBetting.ag’s latest betting line implies an 83.3% chance Fitzgerald hangs it up in 2021.

Last season, Fitzgerald recorded 54 catches for 409 yards and a touchdown, all career lows.

While it’s hard to replicate what Fitzgerald brings to the organization, the Cardinals did go out this offseason and added some depth to the wide receiver room with the signing of A.J. Green. He joins DeAndre Hopkins, Christian Kirk, Andy Isabella and KeeSean Johnson as Cardinals wideouts under contract in 2021.

Turning to a more positive note, Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray comes in tied for the sixth best odds (16/1) with Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB Tom Brady to win the NFL MVP in 2021.

Murray set career marks across the board in 2020, throwing for 3,971 yards and 26 touchdowns on 67.2% passing. He also chipped in 819 rushing yards and 11 touchdowns on 133 attempts (6.2 yards per carry).

He’s not the only Cardinal to pop up on the MVP odds, either, with Hopkins landing in a nine-way tie with the likes of Green Bay’s Davante Adams and Kansas City’s Travis Kelce at 100/1.
