Summary
Kevin O'Connell said Monday that Kyler Murray entered the NFL concussion protocol after leaving Sunday's game on the Vikings' third offensive possession and arrived feeling "pretty good."
Minnesota will handle Murray's recovery day to day with its medical staff, with a clearer read on his availability expected once practice resumes this week.
Carson Wentz replaced Murray and led a comeback win over Green Bay, making him the likely Week 2 starter if Murray cannot clear the protocol before the Sept. 20 game against Chicago.
