The Minnesota Vikings are making a quarterback change for their upcoming Monday Night Football game, according to a report from Gridiron Heroics. The move comes with Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray sidelined by a hamstring injury, though Murray does not play for Minnesota.
The report, authored by Sami Haider and published Saturday, November 7, 2026, did not specify which Vikings quarterback will start or the nature of Minnesota's own quarterback situation. The Vikings' regular starter Sam Darnold has been under center for much of the season, while rookie J.J. McCarthy missed his first year after knee surgery.
Further details on the Vikings' quarterback decision and the Monday night matchup were not provided in the initial report.
