Who are five Minnesota Vikings to watch when they kick off the 2019 preseason this Friday night with a game on the road against the New Orleans Saints?

Finally, the Minnesota Vikings kick off the 2019 preseason with their first game this Friday night. The Vikings take on those dastardly New Orleans Saints.

Typically, in the first preseason game, the starters play maybe a series and then the twos take over for a while. Before the half, it’s the third-stringers and then the real bottom feeders of the roster close out the game.

So while this game is exciting and all, we have to take into consideration who will be out on the field for the majority of the contest.

We will take a look at five Minnesota players who have a lot riding on this game and should be watched very closely through the duration of the first official Vikings football contest of the 2019 preseason.
