Kyler MurrayQB

Murray joined the Vikings during free agency after seven seasons as Arizona's starter; the 2019 No. 1 overall pick won Offensive Rookie of the Year and made Pro Bowls after 2020 and 2021 seasons. In training camp, Murray showed smooth initial 11-on-11 work but less rhythmic 7-on-7 performance, overthrowing Justin Jefferson down the left sideline before connecting on a deep right-sideline throw later in practice. Murray received initial first-team snaps during 11-on-11 drills, though both quarterbacks rotated first- and second-team reps. Head coach Kevin O'Connell emphasized the Vikings will evaluate both quarterbacks comprehensively across first-team, second-team, and situational work before deciding on a Week 1 starter, with no predetermined timeline shared publicly.
