Congrats to the quarterback on his historic day.

Kyler Murray has been named the FedEx Air NFL Player of the Week based on his historic performance on Sunday..

From the team:

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray has been voted the FedEx Air NFL Player of the Week for Week 2.

In the Cardinals 41-10 victory over the Los Angeles Rams last Sunday, Murray posted the second “perfect” performance in franchise history, completing 17-of-21 pass attempts (81.0%) for 266 yards, three TDs and a 158.3 rating.

Murray joined Kurt Warner as the only players in franchise history to finish a game with a “perfect” passer rating of 158.3 (min. 20 attempts). He also rushed for 59 yards on five carries (11.8 avg.).

With his outing on Sunday, Murray also became just the second player in NFL history with at least 250 passing yards, 50 rushing yards and a 158.3 passer rating in a game, joining Cincinnati’s Ken Anderson, who accomplished the feat on 11/3/74 at Baltimore (297 passing yards, 62 rushing yards and 158.3 rating).

By winning the FedEx Air Player of the Week Award, FedEx will proudly work with the Thurgood Marshall College Fund (TMCF) to make a $2,000 donation in Kyler Murray’s name to Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs).

Over the course of the entire season, select HBCUs will receive grants totaling more than $100,000 to support needs-based scholarships through the 2025-26 school year.

Congratulations to Kyler on the award.
