EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. – The Vikings will be fighting for worthy causes while fighting for a win over the Falcons.

More than 20 Vikings players on Wednesday unveiled custom-designed cleats they will don when suiting up for Sunday’s game at Atlanta. The cleats are painted to represent respective causes of the players’ choice and are part of the NFL’s “My Clause, My Cleats” initiative.

Among the causes represented are some players’ personal foundations or charities, including Anthony Barr’s Raise the Barr Foundation, which supports single mothers, and Brian Robison’s Reel ’Em In Foundation, which raises funds for K9s4Cops and security in schools.
