Minnesota Vikings:
The Minnesota Vikings fell 24-30 to the Detroit Lions last Sunday but Minnesota’s playoff hopes are still alive as they look to make the push for a Wild Card spot.
With Kirk Cousins out for the rest of the year due to a torn Achilles sustained in Week 8, the Vikings have started a total of 4 quarterbacks this season. Nick Mullens completed 22-of-36 for 411 yards and two touchdowns, but threw 4 interceptions in the Vikings’ loss on Sunday. It was Mullens’ third game and second start of the season.
Vikings’ head coach Kevin O’Connell will have to decide whether to stick with Mullens, return to Josh Dobbs who was benched in Week 9, or give rookie Jaren Hall, who is now healthy after dealing with a concussion in Week 9, his second start of the season.
