Murray has a slight edge over J.J. McCarthy for Vikings starting QB job.

Murray appears to be the frontrunner in the Vikings' QB competition with J.J. McCarthy. ESPN's Kevin Seifert reports Murray has a slight edge due to his elite running ability and capability of varying pass speeds and trajectories. However, both players split reps with the first-team offense at OTAs, and McCarthy has demonstrated a firmer grasp of the Vikings' complex offensive scheme in recent weeks. Head coach Kevin O'Connell will not take the entirety of camp and preseason to make his decision. Multiple observers indicate Murray would likely be the starter if the season began today, but McCarthy could change that.
