In the first game without quarterback Kirk Cousins, Vikings’ backup quarterback Jaren Hall went down in the first quarter and was ruled out with a concussion.
The rookie Hall was running towards the end zone on a third down when he was tackled by two Falcons players. He hit the ground hard and shortly after was taken to the locker room for further evaluation. The Vikings settled for a field goal on the drive.
Before exiting Sunday’s game, Hall completed five-of-six passes for 78 yards, and he rushed 11 yards on two carries.
