Murray stands 5-foot-10, tops 200 lbs at combine weigh-in
In one of the most discussed weigh-ins in combine history, former Oklahoma quarterback Kyler Murray measured 5-foot-10 and 1/8, 207 lbs on Thursday.
Murray was listed at 5-10, 195 lbs in his final collegiate season, but NFL scouts had questioned whether the prospect would top those numbers. Passing this test could potentially propel him to a top-five selection.
The Heisman Trophy winner would be the shortest starting quarterback in the NFL. His weigh-in is comparable to that of Seattle Seahawks passer Russell Wilson, who stood 5-foot-10 and 5/8, 204 lbs at the 2012 combine.
There were also concerns about Murray's hand size, as NFL teams ideally want their quarterbacks to measure over nine inches. The potential first-round pick's hands measured 9.5 inches, which is larger than Baker Mayfield's and Mitchell Trubisky's.
