Quarterback Kyler Murray finding a new home with the Minnesota Vikings via free agency was a welcome move.

The veteran signal caller, who spent six seasons with the Arizona Cardinals, revealed that he is a lifelong Vikings fan. Murray grew up in Texas and played at Allen High before stints at Texas A&M and Oklahoma in college, where he won the Heisman Trophy with the Sooners in 2018.
