Kyler Murray made one fan’s day when he threw him a football in the middle of a practice.
The Cardinals star, who is gearing up for next season after suffering a torn ACL in 2022, posted a Tik Tok video of the heart-warming interaction on Sunday.
“The crew became distracted,” he captioned the video, which showed a group of construction workers pausing to watch the quarterback train.
Murray then threw the ball to one of the men, dressed in high-vis construction gear, who was standing in the stands.
“Yes,” he said, before walking over to the fan.

“Sorry my hands are a little dirty, I really want to shake your hand brother,” said the man, who identified himself as JD.
“Sup bro,” the 26-year-old athlete said, as JD responded, “damn brother, I’m shaking.”
Murray fist bumped him, before the two posed for a photo.
‘Always nice to meet and communicate with real supporters! I love you all,” he captioned the clip.
JD hopped into the comments section and wrote, “It was an honor to meet you, not many are so humbled #Birdgang.”
The Heisman Trophy winner responded, “Fun brother, I appreciate you!”

Another fan shouted, “KYLER MADE THE PLAYOFFS THIS YEAR, LETS GOOO!!!”
A third person wrote: ‘As a construction worker I really appreciate this… the fact that he didn’t even want to do you dirty and you still took the time for a photo.’
Murray previously revealed his head is in the game after being sidelined for the first half of the 2023 season while rehabbing a torn ACL and meniscus.
“I don’t know if there’s another quarterback in the league that’s more locked in than me,” Murray told FOX last month.
