Arizona Cardinals' Kyler Murray made the news for a bizarre reason after his former hairdresser revealed a strange story about the quarterback.
While on the Matty Ice Show, Swanny, Murray’s ex-hair-dresser, revealed how she became mad when the quarterback insulted black women and asked her to put some pants on while cutting his hair.
Swanny said:
"I felt disrespected. We would have moments where we clashed. He made a comment about the Shade Room and how black girls run it and how they can be messy. And I was like, 'Hello, I am a black woman.' Like calm yourself."

She continued:
“One day, he calls me, and he’s like, 'Hey, Swanny, when you come on Thursday, can you wear pants?' I don’t want to wear pants. I want to wear what I wear. Why the f*** do I have to wear pants, and if you can’t control your eyes, that’s one thing, and if your girlfriend’s insecure, that’s her problem.
"I’m 29 years old. You're 22? I’m a mom of four. I workout every day. I service you whenever you want…and you want me to wear pants? You could f*** off.”
Kyler Murray has had an interesting offseason
Kyler Murray's name has been in the news frequently this offseason. Ever since the Cardinals' 2021-22 season ended with a loss to the Los Angeles Rams in the wildcard round, Murray has pushed for a new deal. When the offseason workout program started in mid-April, Murray was a no-show, fueling speculation that he possibly wanted out of Arizona.
In February, ESPN's Chris Mortensen reported that the Cardinals were concerned about Kyler Murray.
"The odd vibe between the @AZCardinals and Kyler Murray is, indeed, alarming: Murray is described as self-centered, immature and finger pointer, per sources. Murray is frustrated with franchise and was embarrassed by playoff loss to Rams and thinks he’s been framed as the scapegoat," Mortensen tweeted.
Murray, at one point, unfollowed the Cardinals on social media.
He cleared the air over his future, saying he wanted to win multiple Super Bowls with the Cardinals.
Murray said:
"I wanna win Super Bowls with the Cardinals," Murray wrote. "AZ is home."
In three seasons, the Cardinals starter is 22-23-1. He has thrown for 11,480 yards, 70 touchdowns and 34 interceptions. He has also accumulated an additional 1,786 yards rushing and 20 rushing touchdowns.
Murray and the Cardinals may not get a long-term deal hammered out before the start of the 2022-23 season, but he is expected to get one sooner rather than later.
