Summary

Matthew Coller is joined by Judd Zulgad to talk about Kirk Cousins being forced to sit out practice due to close contact with Kellen Mond, who tested positive for COVID. Mike Zimmer expressed his agitation at the podium and called for everyone to get vaccinated. What does this conflict between the QB and coach's views on COVID mean for the Vikings? Is there any way to prevent COVID from being a problem in the future if Cousins doesn't want to get vaccinated? Jake Browning was forced to rise to the challenge for the Vikings' night practice and he did a very good job of doing so. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
