The dress rehearsal game for the NFL preseason is upon fans and the Minnesota Vikings are slated to host the Week 3 contest in front of their hometown fans at U.S. Bank Stadium, meaning the starters should get some extended action.
Guys like Kirk Cousins, Xavier Rhodes, Stefon Diggs, Eric Kendricks, Adam Thielen, and others should see close to a full half of action during this game to prepare for the regular season, while other players will get a chance to fight for a roster spot or to move up the depth chart during the second half.

However. there are still plenty of ways to follow along by watching on tv in some areas, listening on the radio, or using streaming apps or websites.

The Minnesota Vikings defense should have their hands full with a high-powered and dynamic Seahawks offense. Plus, Seattle will feature a new-look defense after moving on from several members of their feared Legion of Boom defense.
If Minnesota can emerge victoriously during Week 3 of the preseason, they will increase their preseason record to 2-1 heading into the team’s final preseason contest on the road against the Tennessee Titans.
