SB Nation Reacts Results: Short Time for the Vikings’ Starters on Saturday

Eagan, Minnesota - May 27: The results of this week's SB Nation Reacts survey for the Minnesota Vikings are in, and they are now available ahead of the weekend's preseason opener against the New York Football Giants at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey. Poll participants were asked how long the Vikings' starters should be on the field for against the Giants, and the majority of respondents believe they should see substantial playing time.

Forty-eight percent of voters think the starters should play at least two series, while another 30% feel it should extend to at least three series (or potentially more). Only 13% of respondents think the starters should only play in one series, and the remaining 9% believe they shouldn't see any action at all.

In recent seasons, the Vikings' starters have seen limited preseason action due to various factors, including quarterback issues. However, this preseason will be different as the team has already confirmed that both Kyler Murray and J.J. McCarthy will play on Saturday. Moving forward, the article anticipates varying levels of action for other starters, with the possibility of some being limited or not playing at all.

Justin Jefferson, in particular, is expected to be out of the starting lineup, though the article acknowledges the potential for exceptions. Regardless of the individual circumstances, the author assures readers that they will be providing comprehensive coverage of Saturday's game against the Giants, and encourages fans to join in the conversation.
