“Zimmer has been hammering the Vikings with situational football exercises throughout the offseason.

On Sunday near the end of practice, he had the first team offense take the ball at its own 9-yard line with under three minutes to go. Facing a third-and-2, Sam Bradford tried to connect with Stefon Diggs. Smith was in coverage, and the pass fell incomplete. Refs through a flag, but the team continued with a punt by Taylor Symmank that netted 33 yards.

Zimmer then opted have Taylor Heinicke at quarterback working with the second-team offense against the second-team defense.

Heinicke alternated completions between rookie tight end Bucky Hodges and veteran Michael Floyd. Hodges gained 9, then Bishop Sankey rushed for 4. Floyd caught a 17-yard reception to place the ball at the 18. Hodges caught a 2-yard gain. One play later, Heinicke drilled a throw into the end zone and Floyd secured it with an impressive diving catch.”
