Overview
- Kickoff is 8:20 p.m. ET at U.S. Bank Stadium on NBC, with streaming on Peacock.
- Minnesota will be without LT Christian Darrisaw, CB Jeff Okudah, edge Andrew Van Ginkel and LB Blake Cashman, with Okudah not clearing concussion protocol and Cashman on injured reserve.
- Head coach Kevin O’Connell said Darrisaw had no setback in his ACL return after pregame work last week, but he remains unavailable for Week 2.
- With Cashman sidelined, veteran Eric Wilson will wear the green-dot helmet to relay defensive calls.
- Sportsbooks still list the Vikings as a slight favorite over Atlanta (e.g., FanDuel MIN -3.5, total 44.5) as the SNF matchup caps a Sunday highlighted by the Eagles–Chiefs rematch in the late window.
