Heading into week 11 versus the Green Bay Packers, these are the Minnesota Vikings grades from best to worst per Pro Football Focus.
Of note, the asterisk * indicates the player has not played enough snaps to qualify for leaguewide ranking. The asterisk essentially indicates rather small sample size, so take those players as “Vikings Top Players” with a grain of salt.
