CBS Sports outlines worst case scenario for Vikings in 2026 season
Summary

CBS Sports has detailed the worst case scenario for the Minnesota Vikings' 2026 NFL season. The analysis revolves around quarterback Kyler Murray, who joins the team after being released by the Arizona Cardinals. If Murray were to secure the starting position but subsequently suffer further injuries, the Vikings could be relegated to poor performance and potentially finish last in the NFC North. This outcome would echo struggles from the previous season. The Vikings face a crucial year where they either aim for a playoff run or a top-five draft pick.
