Undergoing evaluation on hamstring injury
Murray (hamstring), who is dealing with a sore hamstring, is undergoing a full evaluation to determine the extent of the issue, Alec Lewis of The Athletic reports.
When asked whether or not Murray's hamstring soreness will affect his availability for next Monday night's game against the Bills, coach Kevin O'Connell told Lewis, "I don't think we're there yet." Added context regarding the QB's Week 9 availability is in line to arrive no later than Thursday's practice report, but if Murray is unable suit up versus Buffalo, Carson Wentz is next in line for Minnesota's signal-caller reps.
