After being released by the Arizona Cardinals, former No. 1 overall pick and Heisman Trophy winner Kyler Murray has quickly found a new home in the NFL – the Minnesota Vikings.
Murray, who spent seven seasons with the Cardinals, was officially released by the franchise at the start of the new league year at 4 p.m. Wednesday, giving him an opportunity to pick his next destination.
He now heads north to play for Kevin O’Connell and the Vikings, according to a report from NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero and several other insiders.
Two-time Pro Bowl QB Kyler Murray has signed a one-year contract with the Vikings, his agent @ErikBurkhardt tells me and @RapSheet.
