Former Oklahoma teammates Kyler Murray, Baker Mayfield meet again
Vikings quarterback Kyler Murray's return from a Week 1 concussion adds a separate wrinkle to the Week 3 game against the Buccaneers.
Former Oklahoma teammates Kyler Murray and Baker Mayfield are set to meet again in the Week 3 NFL game between the Minnesota Vikings and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Murray, who recently returned from a Week 1 concussion, leads the two in head-to-head victories, with a 3-0 record. Mayfield, who won the Heisman Trophy at Oklahoma in 2017, has faced the Buccaneers twice before, once in 2019 and again in 2023, where he threw for five touchdowns and one interception in each game.
The matchup between the two rivals adds an extra layer of intrigue to the game, as the Vikings aim to secure a 3-0 record while the Buccaneers need to prevent a slip to 0-3.
