Copyright © 2020 The Washington Times, LLC. A return to the playoffs — and a wild-card win over the Saints — helped the Vikings rebound from a disappointing 2018 season and put themselves among the NFC’s final four teams in 2019. Still, change could be in the air for a team facing decisions on a number of 30-something starters while trying to regroup for back-to-back playoff appearances for the first time in Mike Zimmer’s tenure. Here is a position-by-position, player-by-player breakdown of the 2019 roster, with beat writer Ben Goessling’s early predictions for how the roster will look in 2020.

Quarterbacks

Vikings quarterbacks Sean Mannion (4), Kyle Sloter (1), Kirk Cousins (8), and Jake Browning (3), took part in drills during training camp.

Sean Mannion: In

Mannion, like Trevor Siemian a year before him, is headed for free agency after one season as Cousins’ backup. But the Vikings liked what he brought to their QB room, and if the price is right, they could keep him as part of their bid for continuity.

Jake Browning: In

The Vikings signed him as an undrafted free agent last spring and figure to keep him around as their developmental passer — though it wouldn’t
