Vikings' Breakout Candidates: Turner, Felton, Richter, Ward

About this episode

The episode discusses four Minnesota Vikings players expected to have breakout seasons in 2026.

With the 2026 Minnesota Vikings season approaching, four veteran players are poised for breakout years: Tai Felton, Bo Richter, Dallas Turner, and Jay Ward. The Jonathan Greenard trade to Philadelphia has opened up opportunities at outside linebacker, particularly for first-round pick Dallas Turner. Tai Felton is expected to take on a larger role at WR three, while Jay Ward has seized the safety position following Harrison Smiths departure. Bo Richter is also in the mix for increased playing time at outside linebacker. The success of these players will test GM Kwesi Adofo-Mensahs vision for the team.
