STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Murray's Vikings debut underwhelming: 14-of-24, 150 yards, 1 TD vs. weak Colts defense.

Despite being brought in as a veteran to help the Vikings' offense push the ball downfield and get the ball to Justin Jefferson in ways that McCarthy, Carson Wentz, and Max Brosmer couldn't in 2025, Murray's early results have not been great. In Week 7 against a less-than-stellar Colts defense, Murray completed 14-of-24 passes for 150 yards and a touchdown, with Jefferson recording only four catches for 44 yards and being targeted just once in the second half despite the Colts missing their top three cornerbacks due to injuries.
