Just like the Falcons, the Minnesota Vikings were set to decide to between a former top-10 pick in J.J. McCarthy and an established veteran looking to turn his career around in Kyler Murray. It's the exact same predicament that both Michael Penix Jr. (McCarthy) and Tua Tagovailoa (Murray) are in. And Kevin Stefanski may need to take some notes considering Adam Schefter just reported that the Vikings named Kyler Murray their starting QB. Vikings HC Kevin O'Connell now has informed the team that Kyler Murray has been named the starting QB, per sources. At this point, we know it's inevitable that Tua Tagovailoa will be the Week 1 starter.
