    Scott Boras: Tyler Murray won't play pro football

    Oklahoma quarterback Kyler Murray now has a Heisman Trophy on his resume, a somewhat surprising highlight to one of the most star-studded seasons in college football. And according to his baseball agent, college is where his football career will end, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
    Scott Boras, who negotiated Murray's $4.66 million baseball contract this summer after he was selected No. 9 overall in the 2018 MLB Draft by the Oakland A's, said that there is no uncertainty when it comes to Murray's future.

    "Kyler has agreed and the A's agreed to a baseball contract that gave him permission to play college football through the end of the collegiate season," Boras said this week over the phone. "After that, he is under contract to play baseball. That is not a determination to make. It's already done."

      While this is an extremely valid point Turf baseball is much more lucrative than football. More money, longer career and hell of a lot safer than football. About the only better thing that football offers is less traveling if you are a family guy. Unless this kid goes in the top 5 I think baseball is a no brainer.

        Doesn't he have like 4 million in the bank right now from signing his baseball contract? I think he stays with baseball with a chance to make 100 million or more guaranteed without someone trying to take his head off
