Which Minnesota Vikings stood out in their preseason opener against the Seattle Seahawks on Thursday night?
Their preseason opener against the Seattle Seahawks may not mean much in terms of the final score for the Minnesota Vikings, but it will go a long way toward determining what the team will look like during the 2023 season.
