PurplePTSD works in partnership with Vikings Territory, similarly doing their utmost to offer top-notch coverage of the Minnesota Vikings. As a result, we’re promoting five of their top articles of the past month in “The P/PTSD Perspective.” Take a peek at some of their best stuff.
The P/PTSD Perspective: June 20th, 2026
1) Vikings Insider Shares Juicy QB Details on QB Competition: Best guess at this stage is that Kyler Murray will become the QB1. But, to be sure, there are some cracks in what appeared to be a fortified position. To my eye, McCarthy had a better minicamp but different people will have different opinions.
2) The Vikings’ 2026 “Sure Thing” is a Head Scratcher: The K1 has become elite. What’s going to be key is proving capable of maintaining his elite ability. Plenty of kickers have had sizzling seasons; a considerably smaller amount of have had sizzling careers. Can Reichard be that guy?
3) Vikings Make a Handful of Roster Moves: GM Nolan Teasley has been reasonably restrained since taking over as the top executive. However, he hasn’t been shy. Some moves have been made to further adjust the front office while also tweaking the roster.
4) Young Vikings D-Lineman Packed on Some Muscle Ahead of 2026: A good thing. Elijah Williams has already proven to be more formidable than the vast majority expected. Seeing him continue to overcome long odds would be a sneaky good development for the Vikings.
5) J.J. McCarthy Needs to Keep His Good Offseason Rolling: The kid QB has improved. What remains to be seen is he’ll be prove so much better that he can’t be placed on the bench. His failures from 2025 are still fresh in everyone’s mind, meaning he has a long way to go before securing the top job.
Enjoy the extra reading, Vikings fans.
