The NFL shut down the Pittsburgh Steelers move ahead of Sunday’s game against the Minnesota Vikings

Former Los Angeles Rams Napoleon Jinnies came out in support of the two male Minnesota Vikings cheerleaders who sparked debate among NFL fans.

Draft Network's Keith Sanchez recently released the latest 2026 NFL mock draft of the cycle. After the Vikings' win on Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings, some needs are still clear to those watching the team. He projects them to select Georgia linebacker C.J. Allen.

Their performance against the Bengals, led by a defense that forced five turnovers and enjoyed a record two return touchdowns by cornerback Isaiah Rodgers, highlighted the Vikings' collective acknowledgment of the need to play better and play differently to keep up this season in their daunting division.

With J.J. McCarthy injured, the Vikings are turning to veteran quarterback Carson Wentz for their Week 3 matchup against the Bengals.

Former 49ers undrafted free agent RB Jordan Mason was traded there this offseason, and now undrafted rookie Corey Kiner is joining the Vikings after spending the offseason with San Francisco. Kiner suffered an ankle injury in the 49ers' second preseason game and was placed on IR before getting waived with an injury designation.

Playing in place of injured starter J.J. McCarthy, Wentz threw two touchdowns in helping lead the Vikings to a 48-10 thumping of the visiting Bengals on Sunday. The performance compelled Vikings coach Kevin O'Connell to say afterward that Wentz will get another opportunity to start when the Vikings face the Steelers next week in Ireland.
