Though the Vikings' cautious approach with their starters kept their roster in good health before the start of the regular season, they couldn't escape their preseason finale without at least one major injury.
After coach Kevin O'Connell said Saturday night he was worried about the knee injury Bisi Johnson suffered on a special teams play, a magnetic resonance imaging exam Sunday showed the wide receiver tore his anterior cruciate ligament and will be out for the season. Johnson has now torn ACLs in both of his knees in back-to-back seasons; he spent the 2021 season rehabbing from knee surgery after getting injured on a practice drill early in training camp.
