Where to watch Vikings vs Broncos NFL preseason game: TV channel, time, live stream
The Minnesota Vikings and Denver Broncos won't meet again during the 2026 season, but they would certainly love to.
It's a sign of the great expectations that both franchises enter the campaign with, believing that the pieces in place can deliver some great memories and plenty of wins. As usual, it all comes down to the quarterback - the position that separates these two foes.
Bo Nix shined for Denver in the team's second preseason game, showing no signs of rust coming back from a fractured ankle. On the opposite sideline, it has been another offseason of quarterback controversy in Minnesota, headlined by J.J. McCarthy.
The Vikings put their faith in the former Michigan man, hoping he could stabilize the position for years to come. Instead, he has struggled in the preseason and ceded the starting job to Kyler Murray.
In the preseason finale, that remains the most interesting thing to monitor. McCarthy won't suddenly steal the job back, but the Vikings' quarterback room isn't just Murray and him. It's also Carson Wentz and Max Brosmer, who were forced into action in 2025.
If history is any indication, the Vikings will need all of them to get through the 2026 season. For now, it's just about getting through the preseason.
Here's what to know about the final preseason game for both teams.
