Per NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, the Vikings will start QB Carson Wentz in Week 9 against the Bills as Kyler Murray deals with a hamstring injury. Rapoport adds Murray is week-to-week with a hamstring strain, meaning QB Max Brosmer will serve as the backup in the meantime.
This is the second time since Murray was knocked out of Minnesota's Week 1 game against the rival Green Bay Packers on Sept. 13 that the Vikings have had to turn to Wentz.
It’s honestly a little ridiculous that the Minnesota Vikings have been struggling so much at the quarterback position. The one position that has the entire NFL paying attention to is quarterback for the Minnesota Vikings.

According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, it’s trending towards the Vikings starting QB Carson Wentz in Week 9 as Kyler Murray deals with a hamstring injury. Schefter called Murray’s status “at best, up in the air” due to the hamstring injury.
NFL stars can't play forever, and retirement is coming sooner than later for some of the league's top players. These 25 players could call it quits following the 2026 season.

As we approach the midpoint of the 2026 NFL season, it's time to check in on some contenders who struggled in Week 8. Let's break down some disappointing units and rank them on the panic meter.
The Vikings have played seven games this season, and it has become abundantly clear that 25-year-old linebacker Ivan Pace Jr. hasn't been and won't be a major contributor in defensive coordinator Brian Flores's unit.
It is the toughest division in the NFL, but playing in the NFC North is not doing much to help the Minnesota Vikings. The Vikings had been one of the most impressive teams through the first six games of the season and they were the last of the league’s undefeated teams.
