TODAY'S VIKINGS SCHEDULE
The Vikings have an early practice this morning, taking the field at 10:50. They'll wrap up around 12:30 p.m. and head coach Mike Zimmer will speak with the media and the locker room will be open while players pack up their bags. The Vikings will fly out to St. Louis on Saturday.
