The Minnesota Vikings are aiming for quarterback Kyler Murray’s return during Week 12 against the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday, November 29. This information was reported by NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero.
Murray sustained a Grade 2 hamstring injury in the Vikings’ Week 8 matchup against the Detroit Lions, which sidelined him for the subsequent game against the Buffalo Bills in Week 9. In the meantime, the Vikings have acquired quarterback Kirk Cousins from the Las Vegas Raiders, who is set to start against the Green Bay Packers this Sunday. Carson Wentz will serve as the backup quarterback, and Max Brosmer will be positioned as the emergency QB3 in Murray’s absence.
It remains uncertain where Murray will fit in the depth chart upon his return and whether he will reclaim his starting position ahead of Wentz. The Vikings continue to prepare for their next game as they adapt to the ongoing changes in their quarterback lineup.
