O’Connell noted that TE Josh Oliver is targeting a return this week after missing two games with an ankle injury.

Darnold’s second touchdown pass of the second half went to Jones for Minnesota’s first lead with 1:13 left on Sunday, and the Vikings rallied from 13 points down to beat the Arizona Cardinals 23-22 for their fifth straight victory.

The Cardinals kept the Vikings out of the end zone until Darnold hit Johnny Mundt with 1:17 remaining in the third quarter. Kyler Murray threw two interceptions in the fourth quarter to spoil a strong start by the Cardinals. The Cardinals are 6-6 and one game behind NFC West-leading Seattle. The Vikings are 10-2 and one game behind NFC North-leading Detroit.

The Vikings host Atlanta this upcoming Sunday at noon.
