Can Jaren Hall Step Up?

With Kirk Cousins lost for the season, and his future employment with the Vikings in question, the Vikings coaching staff and front office have a lot of issues to resolve. The first is what to do at quarterback now that Cousins is out. Head coach Kevin O’Connell did not make any commitments regarding who his future starting quarterback would be, but with Nick Mullens still on injured reserve for at least one more game, it would seem that Jaren Hall will get at least one starting opportunity to show what he can do at Atlanta next weekend. The Falcons have a QB controversy, with Desmond Ridder remaining on the sideline after being cleared of a concussion, and former Vikings’ backup Taylor Heinicke taking over and producing 20 points in the second half to Ridder’s 3 points in the first half.
