Nick Mullens threw a touchdown pass and Jaren Hall added two more in the Vikings' victory.
The Vikings are 2-0 in preseason action in 2024. Their backup quarterbacks combined for three touchdown passes, their defense was impactful, and a variety of young players stood out in a 27-12 victory over the Browns on Saturday.
Nick Mullens got the start at QB for the Vikings and played the entire first half. On the opening drive, he found Nailor for a big gain and then connected with Trishton Jackson for a touchdown. Mullens — who is now the Vikings' backup QB due to J.J. McCarthy's season-ending meniscus surgery — finished the game 11 of 21 for 135 yards and a TD. After a couple Will Reichard field goals, the Vikings took a 13-7 lead into halftime.
