The Ringer’s Tom Pelissero reports Vikings QB Kyler Murray has a Grade 2 hamstring strain.

07 November 2026

Previous reports said Murray was “week-to-week” with the injury. There’s no question the Vikings will monitor Murray’s health every week, but a Grade 2 hamstring strain typically leads to missing multiple games. With Carson Wentz set to start on Monday Night Football against the Bills in Week 9 and the Vikings monitoring outside QB options ahead of the trade deadline, Murray isn’t even guaranteed to be the starter again once he’s healthy.
