Minnesota Vikings (0-0) at New York Giants (0-0) — Game Preview
The Minnesota Vikings open their preseason slate at 0-0 on the road against the New York Giants, also 0-0, with kickoff at MetLife Stadium set for August 15, 2026. Neither result will count toward the regular season, so both staffs are using the trip through East Rutherford to get a first live look at players fighting for roster spots before final cuts. Minnesota enters with an offseason storyline still playing out at the position that matters most, with the club naming Kyler Murray its starting quarterback for 2026 while J.J. McCarthy works for reps of his own in the quarterback room. New York counters with its own group of first-year pieces to evaluate, led up front defensively by rookie linebacker Abdul Carter as the Giants build out their front seven. It’s an early measuring stick for two NFC clubs with plenty still to sort out before the games start to count.
