The 1-0 Tampa Bay Buccaneers will visit U.S. Bank Stadium for the first time on Sunday to take on the 1-1 Minnesota Vikings in Tampa Bay's first road game of the season. Here are a few individual matchups that could play a key role in determining the outcome of the Bucs' Week Three road trip:
Vikings RB Dalvin Cook vs. Buccaneers LB Kendell Beckwith
This matchup features a pair of fast-starting rookies, both of whom were Day Two draft picks who fell a little farther than originally expected. Cook, long considered a likely first-round pick, landed with the Vikings in Round Two and through two games is the NFL's third-leading rusher with 191 yards.
