The Minnesota Vikings opened their NFL preseason schedule with a 24-23 win over the Las Vegas Raiders on Saturday. In the win, Nailor hauled in 3 catches, garnering 63 yards, and cemented himself as a solid candidate for a starting spot with the Vikings offense.
Nailor’s performance was praised by Vikings head coach Kevin O’Connell, and now, PFF has released that the former Spartan wide receiver was the highest graded Viking in the preseason opener.
