A lot is riding on the preseason for one Minnesota Vikings player who is looking to prove his worth in the NFL.
Despite being in his third year in the NFL, cornerback Mekhi Blackmon feels more like a sophomore after missing all of last year with a torn ACL injury. Blackmon is currently in a position battle with Isaiah Rodgers and Jeff Okudah to be one of the starting cornerbacks alongside Byron Murphy Jr for the upcoming season.
Bleacher Report's Moe Moton recently shared that he believes that, because of that position battle, Blackmon is one of seven players who have the most at stake in the preseason.
