The Minnesota Vikings have a lot to prove this season, but who on the team has the most to prove in their Week 1 matchup with the Cincinnati Bengals?

On paper, the Minnesota Vikings have built a talented team for the 2021 season. But with this, there are a lot of questions ahead of their Week 1 matchup with the Cincinnati Bengals.

The Vikings look quite different from a year ago, with some new signees, some players returning from injury, and other players who are now in the spotlight due to injuries at their position. The whole team has a lot to prove ahead of them, but some players have more to prove than the rest.

These Minnesota players all have different reasons for being included on this list, but the one common factor between them all is that they really need a solid Week 1 outing to help erase the questions going into this year.

If the Vikings are to return to the playoffs after missing out last season, they will need these players to prove their worth. So let’s check out the five Minnesota players who have a lot to prove against the Bengals in Week 1.
