We’re a little more than five weeks away from the start of Minnesota Vikings Training Camp for 2017, ladies and gentlemen! As we’ve mentioned in the past, this is potentially the last year that the team will have their camp on the campus of Minnesota State University in Mankato, with the new facility in Eagan set to open next March.
The team has officially announced the schedule for this year’s camp. Rookies and select other players will report to Mankato on Sunday, 23 July, while the rest of the team will report on Wednesday, 26 July.
The annual night scrimmage at Blakeslee Stadium will take place on Saturday, 5 August. Camp will officially break on Tuesday, 8 August, as the team will travel to Buffalo for the preseason opener the day after that.
Here is the rest of the Vikings’ camp schedule for this year. Please note that all of the walk-thru practices will take place at Blakeslee Stadium.
