The Minnesota Vikings made what could develop into a franchise-altering decision on Thursday, signing quarterback Kyler Murray to a one-year contract worth $1.3 million.
The deal was cheap because Murray had already been guaranteed $36.8 million by the Arizona Cardinals, who released him Wednesday. But its implications will be far-reaching if Murray ends up replacing J.J. McCarthy, the No. 10 pick in the 2024 draft, who has started only 10 games in two seasons because of injuries.
