The Vikings are making another QB change: Jaren Hall will start Sunday night against the Packers.

With playoff hopes on the line in a primetime rivalry game, Minnesota is giving the ball to the rookie from BYU.

With Mullens being very turnover prone —to say the least— through his two starts, the team will see if the rookie can keep things under control. This is actually a great spot for fantasy, with Hall proving in the preseason that he isn't afraid to take off with the ball, including his five scrambles in his last appearance. He can be considered a QB streamer for the desperate.

Per a source with knowledge of the situation, the Vikings are taking a long look at whether Nick Mullens should be benched for rookie Jaren Hall.

Hall was the first quarterback to play after starter Kirk Cousins tore an Achilles tendon against the Packers in late October. Hall suffered a concussion on the opening drive of his first start, at Atlanta. Hall is now healthy and ready. The question, given the various injuries the Vikings have suffered (tight end T.J. Hockenson, receiver Jordan Addison), is whether Hall has enough help around him to overcome the natural mistakes he’ll make as a first-year player, the story went on to say.

The Vikings are sticking with Josh Dobbs as their starting QB this week against the Raiders.

The team mulled a possible change over the bye. But with All-Pro WR Justin Jefferson back this week, the “Passtronaut” finally gets to play with full weaponry.

Dobbs had a shaky, four-interception performance heading into the bye, so the trepidation feels worthwhile, despite his incredible performances in his first two weeks with the Vikings. It will be fun to see what he can do with Justin Jefferson against this Raiders defense.

Schefter's post went on to say after watching Dobbs throw four interceptions in the 12-10 loss to the Bears, HC Kevin O'Connell said he will spend the bye week reviewing the best path forward. “We're going to take a look and really evaluate the inventory of plays we have of Josh,” said O'Connell, who thought about making an in-game QB change. Hall is back in the fold, as is Mullens, who the team also traded for, at the time to provide a better backup option for Kirk Cousins.

The Vikings didn’t plan on playing quarterback Joshua Dobbs in Week 9, but they are planning on having him make the start in Week 10.

Dobbs entered Sunday’s game against the Falcons in the first quarter after Jaren Hall left with an injury and he piloted an improbably comeback win five days after joining the Vikings in a trade with the Cardinals, the story said. Hall was diagnosed with a concussion and may not be available.

This trade suddenly makes a lot of sense since the Cards announced Monday they were going with a QB change in Week 9. Dobbs had started all year to this point for the Cardinals, and at the very least he's insurance for the Vikings. It's been reported Hall will get the start for the Vikings in Week 9, but look for Dobbs to perhaps get on the field in Week 10.

The expected news has come from the Vikings.

An MRI has confirmed that quarterback Kirk Cousins tore his Achilles on Sunday, Minnesota announced on Monday.

The team noted that the timeline and details of Cousins’ upcoming surgery will be determined this week. The Vikings have the rookie Hall on their active roster at quarterback and Mannion on the practice squad. Mullens is on injured reserve and has to miss at least one more game before a potential return. Suddenly sitting at 4-4, it's possible the Vikings bring in another QB.
