Kyler Murray struggles in practice ahead of Vikings-Ravens matchup

Summary

Kyler Murray, the Minnesota Vikings' starting quarterback, is experiencing challenges in practice as the team prepares for their second preseason game against the Baltimore Ravens on August 22. After limited play in the preseason opener against the New York Giants, where he completed 2 of 3 passes for 10 yards, Murray's recent practice session on August 17 raised concerns. He was intercepted twice and faced issues with shotgun snaps. As he works to improve under head coach Kevin O'Connell's system, joint practices with the Ravens later this week will be critical for assessing his progress.
