The Vikings departed U.S. Bank Stadium's playing field for the final team in the preseason on Saturday night, set to be away from their stadium for more than a month before a Week 3 regular-season home opener against the Seahawks.
At least until they face Seattle on Sept. 26, linebacker Troy Dye will have the distinction of being the only player in purple to visit the stadium's end zone in a game this year.
The Vikings failed to produce an offensive touchdown in eight quarters of preseason football at U.S. Bank Stadium, including a 12-10 loss to the Colts on Saturd that only could assuage concerns for the Vikings on one side of the ball.
