Ty Chandler finds end zone in Vikings loss

Minnesota Vikings rookie running back Ty Chander scored again in the preseason, this time against the San Francisco 49ers.

Make that two touchdowns in two preseason games for former UNC running back [autotag]Ty Chandler[/autotag].

A week after he scored a touchdown on a kick return, Chandler was the lone Minnesota Viking to find the end zone in Saturday’s 17-7 preseason loss to San Francisco. Chandler found the end zone late in the first half to give the Vikings a 7-3 lead over the 49ers.

Watch as Chandler takes it in from a few yards out for his second preseason touchdown here in 2022:

After spending one season in Chapel Hill, Chandler was selected in the fifth round of the 2022 NFL Draft. He joined a pretty crowded Vikings backfield led by Dalvin Cook but so far Chandler has been impressive.

He rushed for 19 yards on 5 carries on Saturday after injuring himself in practice earlier in the week.
