    The following players saw their jersey number change.

    • CB Stephon Gilmore: 32
    • ILB Brian Asamoah II: 6
    • K Will Reichard: 16
    • CB Fabian Moreau: 23
    • CB Nahshon Wright: 25
    • S Theo Jackson: 26
    • S Bobby McCain: 28
    • CB Dwight McGlothern: 29

    There are three newcomers to the team who also got their official jersey numbers.

    • QB Brett Rypien: 19
    • RB Zavier Scott: 36
    • OL Ricky Lee III: 63

    These will likely stay official for the Vikings throughout the season. The only likely way numbers will change is if a player is released and brought back after their number was taken by a different player.

    The Vikings are set to kick off against the New York Giants on Sunday, September 8th at noon CST.
