The Minnesota Vikings have begun to finalize their pre-season schedule, including their two home games for this year.
According to Ben Goessling of the Star Tribune, the Vikings have finalized pre-season home games with the Arizona Cardinals and Tennessee Titans.
The #Vikings have finalized dates and times for their two home preseason games.
They'll face the Titans at 7:00 on Aug. 19, and play the Cardinals at noon on Aug. 26 at U.S. Bank Stadium.
Date and time still TBD for their preseason opener in Seattle.

The Vikings will host the Titans on Aug. 19 at 7 P.M., giving Vikings fans a chance to watch rookie quarterback Will Levis, who the Titans took in the second round.
As Goessling mentions, Vikings general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah and Titans general manager Ran Carthon have familiarity with each other dating back to their time with the San Francisco 49ers, which could open the door to a joint practice. Last season, the Vikings held a joint practice with the 49ers.
The week after that matchup, the Vikings will host the Arizona Cardinals for a matinee game.
The Vikings and Cardinals matched up in October of last season, with the Vikings coming away with an eight-point victory.
The Vikings also have a road exhibition against the Seattle Seahawks, but no time or date has been announced.
