- Murray entered the NFL concussion protocol after an illegal hit knocked him out of his Vikings debut (Week 1 vs. Packers).
- Coach Kevin O’Connell said Murray arrived at team facilities "feeling pretty good" and was in meetings and video review.
- O’Connell emphasized the team will "defer to the medical folks and that protocol" and will take Murray’s recovery "day to a time."
- Carson Wentz relieved Murray in Week 1 and threw three touchdowns in the comeback win.
- O’Connell indicated Wentz would start if Murray does not clear the protocol; J.J. McCarthy would be the backup.
- The Vikings also have practice-squad QB Max Brosmer available as emergency depth.
- The team did not provide a projected return date and said they will "take it a day at a time."
- Murray could participate in certain non-contact activities during the process if medically cleared.
- Vikings travel to the Chicago Bears in Week 2; a failure to clear would make Wentz the starter for that game.
