By Adam Carlson
The NFL preseason is nearly here for the Minnesota Vikings! Here’s how to watch the first game against the Saints on TV, listen on the radio, or stream.
It’s finally time to see the Minnesota Vikings go head-to-head against another NFL team. Sure, it’s still the preseason, but there is something about seeing the purple and gold take the field against another team that gets fans excited.
Week 1 of the preseason will pit Minnesota against a familiar foe with some former Vikings on their roster. Several players have made the jump to the New Orleans Saints in recent years, so seeing some of these individuals will be fun and interesting.
Quarterback Teddy Bridgewater, running back Latavius Murray, offensive lineman Nick Easton, fullback Zach Line, and special teams ace Marcus Sherels are all members of the roster for New Orleans and are expected to make an appearance in this preseason game.
But that won’t be the only thing to watch. Not only there are a number of great young players to watch for the Vikings but the main focus of fans will likely be the offensive line, where fans will be hoping to see holes created in the run game and great blocking for Kirk Cousins.
