Vikings finalize roster auditions in preseason finale against Broncos

The Minnesota Vikings will face the Denver Broncos on August 28 at 8 p.m. CT in their last preseason game. Quarterback J.J. McCarthy’s status is uncertain due to a recent ankle injury, raising questions about his future with the team. Max Brosmer may have an extended opportunity to showcase his skills, potentially playing the entire game. Multiple position battles will take place, including the RB3 spot between Demond Claiborne and Zavier Scott, and competition for the sixth receiver position involving Dillon Bell and Dontae Fleming. The Vikings must finalize their roster by Sunday’s cut deadline.
