Much like Kyle, I didn’t know if I liked the Vikings signing Nick Vigil early in the off-season. When Anthony Barr continued to miss practice in camp and preseason games, I figured that our linebacking corps was doomed once again.
However, Vigil has not only stopped any bleeding that Barr’s absence could have started, but he has also performed very well. On Sunday in Arizona, he provided the lone Vikings touchdown in the second half. The score took away the momentum that the Cardinals had gathered going into halftime.
Nick Vigil’s Sunday Performance
The pick-6 to begin the second half of Sunday’s barnburner was a microcosm of Vigil’s presence.
