  • Vikings' Josh Metellus: Snags pick in win

    Metellus tallied seven tackles (five solo) and an interception during the Vikings' 23-17 win over the 49ers on Sunday.

    Metellus came up big for Minnesota as he recorded the team's only interception, which was the third of his career. The 26-year-old will look to build off this strong performance next week versus the Texans.

  • Vikings' Blake Cashman: Leading tackler versus 49ers

    Cashman recorded 13 tackles (five solo), with 1.0 sacks, during Minnesota's 23-17 win over the 49ers on Sunday.

    Cashman was dominant for the Vikings, as he led the team in tackles in addition to logging his first sack of the season. The 28-year-old has now amassed 19 tackles (nine solo) across the first two games of the 2024 campaign.

  • Vikings' Jonathan Greenard: Gets first sack for Minnesota

    Greenard had two total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, in Sunday's win over the 49ers.

    Greenard had six QB hurries, according to Pro Football Focus, as he helped lead a deep pass rush that had six sacks. He played on 47 of the defense's 70 snaps, as Minnesota features a deep rotation of pass rushers. Greenard rebounded after recording no tackles or sacks in Week 1.

  • Vikings' Pat Jones: Two more sacks against 49ers

    Jones had five total tackles, including 2.0 sacks, in Sunday's win over the 49ers.

    Jones has recorded two sacks in each of Minnesota's first two games and has five total sacks his last two seasons. The 2021 third-round draft pick wasn't thought of as an impact pass rusher, but he's benefited from the focus on other players amid a deep rotation. Jones played on just 34 of the defense's 74 snaps, so he may not get the volume of opportunities with which to come close to keeping up this pace.

  • Vikings' Brandon Powell: Two receptions as No. 3 WR

    Powell had two receptions for 16 yards on two targets in Sunday's win over the 49ers. He also had one punt return for 10 yards.

    Powell worked as the third receiver with Jalen Nailor starting opposite Justin Jefferson with Jordan Addison (ankle) sidelined. Powell could move into the starting lineup if both Addison and Justin Jefferson (quad) are sidelined Week 3 against Houston.

  • Vikings' Dallas Turner: Viewed as day-to-day

    Head coach Kevin O'Connell told reporters Monday that Turner is day-to-day with a knee injury, Ben Goessling of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

    Turner played 18 defensive snaps and recorded two total tackles before leaving Minnesota's Week 2 win with a knee injury. If Turner is forced to miss time, expect Pat Jones to see more work on the Vikings' defense as a rotational edge rusher.

  • Vikings' Johnny Mundt: Two receptions in win

    Mundt had two receptions for 12 yards on three targets in Sunday's win over San Francisco.

    Josh Oliver and Mundt both started the game in a two-TE set, but Mundt got more playing time (38 snaps compared to 29) and had more targets (Oliver had none). Mundt clearly is the receiving tight end option in the offense with T.J. Hockenson out while coming back from a knee injury, but he's not a big factor in the passing game. However, that could change if both Jordan Addison (ankle) and Justin Jefferson (quad) are sidelined Week 3 against Houston.

  • Vikings' Trishton Jackson: Gets time on offense

    Jackson didn't have a carry or target in Sunday's win over San Francisco but played five snaps on offense.

    Jackson was inactive for Week 1 but got some playing time on offense in Week 2 with Jordan Addison out with an ankle injury. He could have an expanded role as the fourth or fifth receiver Week 3 against Houston if both Addison and Justin Jefferson (quad) are sidelined.

  • Vikings' Trent Sherfield: One reception in win

    Sherfield had one reception for 17 yards on two targets in Sunday's win over San Francisco.

    Sherfield played on 16 of the offense's 54 offensive snaps. He moved into the fourth receiver role behind Jalen Nailor, who had 50 snaps on offense and four targets, and Brandon Powell (32 snaps and two targets ) with Jordan Addison (ankle) sidelined. Sherfield could see an expanded role Week 3 against Houston if both Addison and Justin Jefferson (quad) are sidelined.
