He's among the inactives today.

Vikings declared QB Kellen Mond, CB Cameron Dantzler, LB Anthony Barr, T Christian Darrisaw, TE Ben Ellefson, DT James Lynch, and DE Patrick Jones inactive for Week 1 against the Bengals.

This means that Sean Mannion has secured the backup gig in Minnesota. Mond was always going to be a project quarterback but his inability to secure the backup job as a rookie is concerning. With Darrisaw also out, the Vikings will be without their first two picks of the 2021 NFL Draft in Week 1.

Maybe inactive will light a fire under Dantzler, hopefully, but probably not...

I swear if I have to watch Mannion start a game for this team this year…

I thought McNabb would forever be my most hated Viking but a couple Mannion starts could change my mind.

EDIT: Honorable mention Willie Beavers, just because.

Man, sad to read this...

I hope the kid can bounce back

Dantzler aint a #1, but the situation makes me think back to this teams #1 picks the last # of years:

Waynes
Treadwell
Hughes
Bradbury
Jet
Gladney
Darrisaw

That's not a great take rate?? Not sure how it compares to rest of league.

2 of the last 7 #1 picks will contribute to the Vikings team taking the field today.

It sucks but maybe he rebounds and has a wake up call. Maybe someone else steps up and has success this season. Barr is a concern but we'll see what happens there. Darrisaw sucks.

I heard this, but I think they went elsewhere. The Dantzler thing is a real mystery.

Apparently the Vikings told the 49ers they weren't interested in trading him.

It would be pretty foolish to trade him. Talk about selling low on a player who still has a good deal of upside.
