Vikings Day 7 Camp Recap: Murray Edges McCarthy as Felton & Demmings Shine

Vikings Training Camp Day 7: Kyler Murray Separating in QB Battle, Tai Felton Surging, Chuck Demmings Impresses — Tyler Forness and Dave Stefano recap Minnesota Vikings training camp day seven (second day in pads) at TCO Performance Center, focusing on the Kyler Murray vs. J.J. McCarthy quarterback competition. Forness says McCarthy showed his best processing early and had some strong moments, but inconsistency remains, while Murray looks more consistently decisive and explosive, including two deep post touchdowns and a quicker operation of the offense; Forness believes Murray is separating and may soon be named starter, with Wentz potentially QB2. Jordan Addison missed practice due to a non-serious jammed thumb. Forness praises Tai Felton’s growth and big plays, and raves about rookie CB Chuck Demmings, who broke up passes and even won reps against Justin Jefferson. Other notes include strong flashes from Dallas Turner, run-game optimism with Frank Smith, and unimpressive early returns from Demond Claiborne.
