Report: Vikings cornerback Mekhi Blackmon tears ACL during first training camp practice
In their first training camp session, the Minnesota Vikings suffered a major setback as cornerback Mekhi Blackmon tore his ACL, likely causing him to miss the entire 2024 season. Blackmon was a third-round pick in the 2023 NFL Draft and had a promising rookie year before this injury. This loss comes after the recent tragic death of rookie cornerback Khyree Jackson in a car accident. The Vikings have signed Shaquill Griffin, but may need to acquire another cornerback. General manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah will need to address this position as the team prepares for the upcoming season.
