The Tennessee Titans and Minnesota Vikings will face off in the preseason finale, and here are seven bubble players who must impress this week.

After spending the latter half of the 2024 season with the Vikings, Daniel Jones has won the starting job for the Colts.

While it’s been presumed that veteran Sam Howell, a 17-game starter in Washington two years ago, will be the primary backup, coach Kevin O’Connell on Monday said the competition remains unresolved.

If the Bengals find an offer they like and send him away before Week 3, it would allow the Vikings to avoid playing him. The Bengals would still have their first-round pick edge rusher in Shemar Stewart to cause problems, but taking Hendrickson out of the equation would be massive for the team.

The Vikings defense under Brian Flores is the only one of its kind in the NFL, and Metellus is its embodiment.

The Vikings are signing running back Xazavian Valladay, Mike Garafolo of NFL Media reports. Valladay became a free agent in June when the Saints cut him. He had stints on the practice squad of the Jets and Saints last season. Valladay was with the Steelers in 2023.

The Vikings are hoping Jackson can follow in the footsteps of Cam Bynum and Josh Metellus and become their next do-it-all safety.
