O'Connell gives update on Kyler Murray's concussion, possible Jordan Mason injury
Kevin O'Connell didn't have a whole lot more information the day after Murray suffered a concussion.
Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell provided an update on quarterback Kyler Murray's concussion status on Monday, after the team's game against the Packers on Sunday. O'Connell stated that Murray's symptoms were not particularly severe and that he was in the concussion protocol. O'Connell mentioned that Murray was feeling good and participating in team meetings on Monday morning, but they would follow the NFL's concussion protocol for his recovery.
Murray's potential availability for Week 2 remains uncertain. Meanwhile, running back Jordan Mason reported thumb soreness after rushing for 59 yards and a touchdown in the previous game. Mason is being evaluated to determine the severity of his possible injury, and if he needs to miss time, Aaron Jones would be the backup option.
