The Vikings’ 53-Man Depth Chart for their Week 1 Packers Game

Vikings football is finally here, folks. Kevin O’Connell gets to begin his career against a dreaded division foe, the Green Bay Packers. It’s safe to say that a Week 1 upset over the division champs would be enough for Minnesota fans far and wide to board the hope train.
The players, of course, are most important when it comes to whether a game is won or lost. As a result, I’m offering up this depth chart to give fans a refresher. At times, it differs from the one on the team’s website, so be aware that there are some differences of opinion.
Finally, keep in mind that practice squad players aren’t included since this piece only covers the 53-man roster.
