Do the Vikings play today? Schedule, time, channel for next Minnesota football game image

Only two NFL teams remain perfect through Week 6 – the reigning Super Bowl champions, the Chiefs, and the Vikings. Who would've thought?

Minnesota is cruising after beating the Jets 23-17 last week in London. While New York had a chance to win it all in the final minutes, Aaron Rodgers' third interception of the game sealed the deal for the purple and gold. It's the perfect ending to Minnesota's 2024 start as the squad takes a much-needed break.

When they come back from their Week 6 bye, they'll face divisional rival Lions, who've beaten the Seahawks and Rams but lost to the Bucs. Until then, Minnesota fans can sit back, relax and enjoy NFL chaos for this week.

For those that can't wait to see the Vikings back in action, here's all the details to know about their next game.
