Vikings rally for 39-22 win over Packers after Kyler Murray leaves with concussion

The Minnesota Vikings are 1-0 after a 39-22 win over the Green Bay Packers on Sunday in front of a full house at U.S. Bank Stadium.

It happened with a fourth quarter avalanche, after Kyler Murray had to leave his Vikings' debut in the first quarter. He was put in the concussion protocol after taking a huge hit on a scramble.

The Vikings got the win after out-scoring the Packers 22-0 in the fourth quarter. It all started after Jordan Love failed to get a first down on a 4th-and-1 sneak. The Vikings got touchdowns from Aaron Jones, Jordan Mason and Justin Jefferson, and the defense forced two turnovers. Minnesota was down 22-10, and scored 29 unanswered points.

In place of Murray, Carson Wentz was 12-of-19 for 133 yards and three touchdowns.
