The primary goal of any NFL team in the preseason is to make it through to the regular season without any significant injuries. During their practice on Thursday, the Minnesota Vikings saw one of their players have their season end before it even really got started.
#Vikings DT James Lynch tore his ACL in practice Thursday and will undergo season-ending surgery, per source.
A fourth-round pick in 2020, Lynch has played in 37 games over three seasons in Minnesota. He’ll have time to get healthy before hitting free agency in March.
