74 days until Vikings season opener: Every player to wear No. 74

It’s the final countdown…

Well, sort of.

The Minnesota Vikings will kick off their 2023 regular season in 74 days at home against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sept. 10.

From now until then, we will take a trip down memory lane and count each day by revisiting the players that have worn that specific jersey number.

Backup offensive tackle Oli Udoh currently wears the No. 74 for the Vikings, but the number will be fondly remembered for offensive tackle Bryan McKinnie, who played close to a decade with it.

With 74 days until kickoff, here’s a look at every player to wear No. 74 with the Vikings (via Pro Football Reference):
