The Vikings are getting closer to playing football. Training camp ramps up this week with the start of an eight-day strength and conditioning program that features some on-field work (rookies started earlier). We’ll preview the key points at each position until practices are scheduled to begin Aug. 12; full pads on Aug. 17.
Quarterbacks
Kirk Cousins, Sean Mannion, Jake Browning, Nate Stanley
Offseason moves
In: Stanley (seventh-round pick)
Outlook
Cousins heads into his third season with the Vikings fully entrenched as the team’s quarterback for the foreseeable future, after the Vikings extended his contract through 2022 in exchange for cap relief in March.
