Daily Norseman on Kyler Murray
From the article
One of the biggest question marks surrounding the Minnesota Vikings is quarterback Kyler Murray. The biggest question mark right now is with his health, and we are still waiting on more details with him being in the concussion protocol.
STACKED’s take
Murray in concussion protocol; likely misses Week 2, expected back Week 3.
Murray is in concussion protocol following Week 1 injury vs. Packers. Defensive coordinator Brian Flores provided a rare media update on the Unbuttoned podcast, stating Murray "looks good" and will progress through protocol. Former NFL team doctor David Chao noted this is Murray's first concussion and that despite the scary appearance of the injury, it does not necessarily indicate worse prognosis or longer recovery; medically, clearing next week is possible. Sports Med Analytics data suggests concussions average ~8 days recovery, with most common scenario being Week 2 miss and Week 3 return. Flores praised Murray's growth, command of offense, arm strength, and athleticism during training camp, noting his off-script play ability.
