UPDATE: Murray has been ruled out and he will be covered for DraftKings Early Exit.
Kyler Murray has been removed from today’s Minnesota Vikings vs. Green Bay Packers matchup and is currently in concussion protocol. The new Minnesota starter was scrambling on third down and was hit helmet-to-helmet by a Packers defender. Green Bay was punished with a 15-yard penalty for unnecessary roughness.
Carson Wentz took over as quarterback for the Vikings following the injury. If Murray does not return, he will be eligible for Early Exit.
Will Kyler Murray bets be refunded?
Thankfully for eligible Murray prop backers on DraftKings Sportsbook, because he left the game in the first half due to injury and as long as he does not return, DraftKings’ Early Exit Protected rules apply to qualifying wagers.
Eligible single bets on Murray will be settled as void, with the original stake returned. For qualifying parlays and Same Game Parlays, the Murray selection will be voided and the odds of the wager will be recalculated using the remaining legs.
Bets or selections that were already determined before Murray’s injury may still be settled normally rather than receiving Early Exit protection.

DraftKings Early Exit FAQ
What is DraftKings Early Exit?
DraftKings Early Exit Protected is a free feature that automatically protects eligible NFL player prop bets during the first half. If an eligible player leaves during the first half because of an injury or officially confirmed illness and does not return, the qualifying selection is settled as void.
Which NFL bets are eligible for Early Exit?
Early Exit applies to eligible full-game NFL player props placed before the game, along with select eligible live bets. Qualifying wagers can include single bets, parlays and Same Game Parlays. In parlays, an eligible Early Exit selection is voided and the wager is recalculated using the remaining legs.
Is there a way to get injury protection on bets for the whole game?
Yes. DraftKings Early Exit+ is an optional feature that extends Early Exit protection into the second half of an NFL game for a fee equal to 3% of the wager amount. The fee is separate from the wager and is not refunded. You can upgrade to full-game protection without leaving your bet slip.
