EAGAN, Minn. -- The Minnesota Vikings' 2024 schedule was released along with the rest of the NFL slate Wednesday.
The first season of quarterback J.J. McCarthy's career will be a doozy. The Vikings have been assigned seven nationally televised games, including four in the first five weeks of the season. By the end of Week 5, they will have played in three different countries.
Four of those games will be played in prime time, starting with the season opener at Chicago. The Vikings won 14 games last season, and after a free agent frenzy that left them with $315 million in cash commitments for 2025, the NFL is ready to expose them to the world.
