The
Minnesota Vikings are facing a Tampa Bay Buccaneers team that is heading into their matchup with their backs against the wall.
The game follows a tough road win against a Chicago Bears team that came into the matchup boasting a high-powered offense. The Bucs' offense has been a shell of itself in 2026, but that doesn't mean things can't click at a moments notice. Also worth looking at, Kyler Murray is coming back into the fold to make hopefully make the Vikings' offense dangerous in its own way.

- CB Zemaiah Vaughn
- S Jakobe Thomas
- QB J.J. McCarthy (3rd QB)
