Kyler Murray joins Vikings, initiates quarterback competition in Minnesota

Kyler Murray has signed a one-year deal with the Minnesota Vikings following his release from the Arizona Cardinals. His arrival adds competition for quarterback J.J. McCarthy, the 2024 NFL Draft’s No. 10 pick, who has struggled in his early career. The Cardinals still owe Murray $36.8 million, making this a low-risk signing for the Vikings. Murray’s tenure with Arizona was marked by injuries, and he aims to rebound after a challenging stretch.
