A lofted pass from backup quarterback Sam Howell was intercepted by cornerback Dwight McGlothern. It marked that second straight practice during which McGlothern has recorded an interception. After biding his time as a rookie, McGlothern is ready to take the next step in his career.

The Vikings roster has reported to Eden Prairie, and as a result, they have started their journey into the 2025 season. It starts at home in Minnesota, but they hope it ends on the road in Santa Clara, where they have a chance to raise the Lombardi Trophy for the first time.

It was a good day for the Vikings' depth tight ends. Ben Yurosek had one of the highlights of the practice with a leaping touchdown catch from Howell in red zone 7s, but Bryson Nesbit and Giovanni Ricci made some plays as well. With Gavin Bartholomew on the PUP list, those first three guys are competing for the TE3 role, as things stand.
