MN Vikings Release First Injury Report of Week 9

The Minnesota Vikings released their first injury report of Week 9, revealing a significant absence in their lineup. Quarterback Kyler Murray will sit out at least one game due to a hamstring strain, while safety Theo Jackson also missed practice due to a quad injury. Seven other players were limited, including Demond Claiborne (knee), Christian Darrisaw (shoulder), Jake Golday (calf), Jauan Jennings (calf), Isaiah Rodgers (ankle), Andrew Van Ginkel (chest), and Jay Ward (knee).

The Vikings have bolstered their offensive line depth with new additions to their practice squad. With Murray sidelined, Carson Wentz will start, and former Gopher Max Brosmer will serve as his backup.
