Vikings take a 14-7 lead on Sam Darnold’s second TD pass

The Vikings woke up at halftime.

Sam Darnold threw his second touchdown pass two possessions of the second half to give the Vikings a 14-7 lead. The Vikings, who were shut out in the first half, scored on nine-play drives of 70 and 80 yards after halftime.

The Vikings quarterback threw a 7-yard touchdown pass to Jalen Nailor with 2:49 left in the third quarter.

Darnold was stuck on offense after Brian O’Neill scored and was testing his lower leg on the sideline afterward. It looks good.

He was 26-of-30 for 255 yards with two touchdowns and one interception.

Justin Jefferson has over 100 yards and is catching seven passes for 137 yards.

Rookie kicker Will Reichard won the PAT. She missed the first two kicks of her career on field goal attempts of 53 and 31 yards, and NBC sideline reporter Melissa Stark reported that Reichard had trouble with her right hip. The team did not announce Reichard’s injury.
