The Miami Dolphins (3-2) face the Minnesota Vikings (4-1) in a once-every-four-years type of AFC versus NFC matchup. Miami is coming into this game having lost their last two games and hoping to right the ship at home. The Vikings are on a three-game winning streak and hoping to keep their hold on the NFC North lead.
Today’s game will feature Miami starting their third-string quarterback, rookie Skylar Thompson. The Dolphins are turning to Thompson after a concussion to starter Tua Tagovailoa has sidelined him for the last two weeks and a non-concussion to second-string passer Teddy Bridgewater forced him to miss the week of practice.
