We know a few things about the Vikings’ 2021 schedule, including all 17 of their opponents (that’s right, there’s now going to be 17 games) and the fact they will close the season with a Week 18 game against the Chargers in Los Angeles.
But what about dates and times and television information? That will be announced at 7 p.m. Wednesday as the NFL schedule is released. Here is one man’s guess for what the Vikings’ schedule will look like.
