The Minnesota Vikings went into the final preseason game with a few roster-related questions left to answer. One of the big ones involved the offensive line and specifically which man might emerge as a potential swing tackle.
After one half of football Thursday night against Tennessee, the answer is now clear: Nobody is going to emerge from that group and the Vikings will have to pick someone up after final cuts on Saturday.
The men auditioning for the swing tackle role going into tonight were Austin Shepherd, David Yankey and Bobby Vardaro. In the first half Yankey and Vardaro looked horrible and Shepherd not much better.
