With the NFL today, March 6th, the Minnesota Vikings just restructured the contract of quarterback Byron Murphy, Jr., freeing up $11 million and $20,000 in cap space. This simple move comes after Murphy resigned with the team last March on a three-year deal worth $54 million following his arrival in. 20-23 Murphy, now 28 years old, started his NFL career as a second-round pick by the Arizona Cardinals in the 2019 draft where he played his first four seasons. Last season, he suited up for all 17 games, racking up 71 tackles, three tackles for loss, two interceptions, 15 pass breakups, and a fumble recovery. That extra cap room gives the Vikings more flexibility heading into the offseason, potentially helping them make roster moves or extend other key, players.
