After missing all four preseason games with a right arm injury, Vikings second-year tackle Brian O’Neill will indeed play in the team’s Week 1 game against the Falcons.
Chris Tomasson has the scoop via Mike Zimmer.
O’Neill was a 2018 second-round pick and turned out to be a pleasant surprise for what as an otherwise disappointing offensive line. He started 11 games in the season.
He’ll start at right tackle in Sunday’s game agaisnt Atlanta at U.S. Bank Stadium. He’ll most certainly show up on the team’s injury list throughout the week, though.
