Kyler Murray seems to often be involved in trade rumors.
But the Arizona Cardinals quarterback isn't concerned with those.
Instead, he recently looked ahead to the 2028 Olympics, in which flag football will be a sport for the first time.
Murray wants to suit up, but not for the United States. He's aiming to play for South Korea, where his maternal heritage is.
“If they asked me to do it, that would be incredible to see, but it’s probably a bit of a stretch at the moment, probably,” Murray told ESPN. “I don’t know much of the logistics behind it. I’d probably have to talk it over with my family and obviously the Cardinals organization to see how everything would shake out, but I’d definitely be open to it. I wouldn’t cancel anything out.”

Just from a logistical standpoint, it makes sense that some quarterbacks would look into playing for other countries.
Each team can bring 10 players total for the 5-on-5 game. It seems like, at best, the United States would bring two QBs.
That leaves a lot of quarterbacks without an Olympic spot unless they sign on with a different nation.
Murray playing for South Korea would be really cool if it could come to fruition.
