Because Vikings coach Kevin O'Connell tends to keep his starters out of preseason games, he puts a high priority on joint practices with other teams to keep his players sharp during training camp at TCO Performance Center in Eagan. On Wednesday and Thursday, the Vikings will be joined at practice by the Tennessee Titans, their opponent for a preseason game at U.S. Bank Stadium on Saturday. Next week, the Vikings will host the Arizona Cardinals for practices Aug. 23 and 24 before the teams meet in a preseason game in Minneapolis on Aug. 26.

Here's what you need to know about this week's practices against the Titans.

Can I go to these practices?

What time is practice?

Gates open at 10 a.m., with practice scheduled from noon–2 p.m.

Who can I expect to see on the Titans?

Star running back Derrick Henry remains on the roster after being the subject of trade rumors, and the Titans signed receiver DeAndre Hopkins in the offseason. But the main camp position battle is at quarterback with Ryan Tannehill, 2022 third-round pick Malik Willis and Will Levis, the 33rd pick in April's draft. Willis and Levis split snaps in Tennessee's preseason opener, a 23-17 loss to the Bears.
