The Minnesota Vikings conduct back-to-back training camp practices, with conditions shifting from rain to sun across the two days. On August 7, practice takes place in full pads after the rain stops and the sun returns, with the session described as less intense than the previous day’s fully padded work.

On August 8, the Vikings practice again at the TCO Performance Center in shells and shorts. Sources report hotter and sunnier weather and a slower overall pace compared with the day before. The structure of the session emphasizes special teams early, followed by another team “install” period later, which also contributes to the reduced pace. Across the reports, both days feature standard team practice segments rather than major singular events, with notes focusing on day-to-day changes in intensity, weather, and practice flow.
