A Pro Bowler has described the Minnesota Vikings' decision to start quarterback Carson Wentz following Kyler Murray's injury as a "silent benching," according to a report from Pro Football Network.
The comment comes after the Vikings' 19-15 victory over the Detroit Lions at Ford Field on November 1, 2026. Lions offensive coordinator Drew Petzing was seen speaking with Vikings quarterback Kyler Murray following the game.
Further details on the Pro Bowler's assessment and the Vikings' quarterback situation were not immediately available.
