Mike Boone expected to make his second start for Vikings against the Bears
Mike Boone's first NFL start was not one to remember. The second-year running back had 11 carries for only 28 rushing yards in Monday night's loss to the Packers.
On Thursday, Boone sat at his locker following practice at TCO Performance Center and watched cutups of the Bears defense ahead of what should be his second NFL start on Sunday.
Dalvin Cook (shoulder) and Alexander Mattison (ankle) remained limited during Thursday's practice, lending further importance to Boone's film study of how the Bears defense will attack run schemes and what he needs to do in pass protection.
