TEMPE — The way Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray is playing, it’s no surprise that he’s been included in MVP chatter around the NFL.

But what does the signal caller think about all the talk ahead of a matchup against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 12?

“I hear it,” Murray said Wednesday. “I don’t really pay too much mind to it. It doesn’t fulfill me or satisfy me. I just have to continue to keep the main thing the main thing and continue to try to play at a high level for my teammates and in this organization. I think winning cures all. I know that to be true. I’ve won a lot of awards in my life and I was never focused on doing those things. They just kind of happened.

“I don’t play the game for the validation of others, but I think as a player, of course sometimes the recognition and the words being said about you feels good, but again it doesn’t satisfy me.”
