The Minnesota Vikings are going to be in for a dogfight on Sunday afternoon when they take on the Atlanta Falcons At Mercedes Benz Stadium.
It will also be the first game quarterback Kirk Cousins has ever missed due to injury in his National Football League career. That fact brings the first NFL start for quarterback Jaren Hall on Sunday.
The rookie from BYU is going to be surrounded by arguably the best situation in the NFL for a young quarterback and Justin Jefferson can’t return until next week. Can he step up in a major way for the Vikings and potentially be the franchise quarterback the Vikings have been hoping for? He is one of the players to watch on Sunday.
