Vikings Top Packers 17-14 to Open U.S. Bank Stadium

MINNEAPOLIS — Trae Waynes was picked on a little by Aaron Rodgers, but then came the pick off.

The Wisconsin native who started in place of Xavier Rhodes for the second straight week intercepted Aaron Rodgers with 1:50 remaining to seal a 17-14 Vikings victory in the first regular-season game in U.S. Bank Stadium history.

The Vikings (2-0) were able to run out the clock, despite losing Adrian Peterson to a knee injury earlier in the game, after Stefon Diggs drew a pass interference penalty on a third-down play for a new set of downs.
