The Minnesota Vikings defeated the Green Bay Packers in week 2 of the NFL season. Let’s take a look at the players who saw their stock rise, and who saw their stock plummet.

However, there were some players who saw their stock drop, and they will need to turn it around in order for this team to take the next step.

Let’s take a look at the players who raised their stock on Sunday, as well as those who saw their stock drop.
