Hey, everybody, welcome to another episode of Purple Insider presented by Fandul, and we have so much going on in Minnesota Vikings land right now.

Figured I would just jump on the live stream and talk it out.

0:20.3

And if we get official news about

0:22.7

Kyler Murray, then we will break that down. It seems like from reports, Kyler Murray is going

0:28.3

to visit the Vikings and go through a physical. And every single insider is nodding and

0:35.5

came out last week that aaron jones was going to be let go it was like okay well what's next

1:51.1

for the viking's backfield and then as free agency began in the legal tampering period began it was

okay there's a running back off the board okay there's a running back off the board. Okay, there's another running back

2:03.5
