Broncos visit Vikings in first preseason game of 2021

MINNEAPOLIS (KXRM) — The Denver Broncos and Minnesota Vikings are tied 0-0 with 10:00 left in the first quarter.

The Broncos defense forced the Vikings offense to go three-and-out on their first possession with Jake Browning as their starting quarterback. Minnesota’s usual starter Kirk Cousins did not play.

The first two offensive plays for Denver went to Javonte Williams, who ran for 13 and 11 yards, respectively. Drew Lock then completed a play-action pass to K.J. Hamler for 25 yards to set up the Broncos in the red zone.

Williams appeared to get the Broncos on the board with a 4-yard touchdown run on 3rd and short, but Jerry Jeudy was called for holding. After picking up nine yards on a screen pass, Denver kept the offense on the field on fourth down.

***INJURY NOTES***

15:00 — Broncos safety Trey Marshall walks off the field under his own power after suffering an injury on the opening kickoff.
